What is a PSARA License?

A PSARA License is the statutory licence under the Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005 that authorises a person or company to run a private security agency in India.

Who needs a PSARA License in India?

Any individual or entity intending to start or operate a private security agency providing guards, supervisors, or related security services for hire must obtain a PSARA License from the State Controlling Authority.

How long is a PSARA License valid?

Typically five years from the date of grant in most States, subject to Rules and timely renewal. Some States operate with one-year validity regimes.

What documents are required for PSARA?

Identity and address proofs of promoters, company incorporation papers, MOA/AOA with suitable objects, registered office proof, photographs, affidavits, training MOU, and police verification forms.

How do I check PSARA License status?

You can check the status with the State Controlling Authority where the application was filed. Contact us for assistance with status tracking across any State.

Can a PSARA License be transferred?

Licences are not casually transferable like assets. Change of control or structure usually needs authority intimation or fresh compliance. Plan M&A with licensing counsel.

Is training MOU mandatory for PSARA?

Yes in almost all practical filings. A training MOU with a State-recognised institute covering unarmed and armed curricula is required before or during the licence process.

What is the penalty for operating without PSARA?

Operating without a valid PSARA license is a criminal offense under the PSARA Act, 2005, attracting penalties, prosecution risk, and permanent contract ineligibility with serious clients.
