Stone crusher in India 2026: three gates, not one

CalcGuru · calcguru.in Free Advanced India

An August 2026 guide to quarrying and crushing: a quarry lease under the MMDR Act and state minor mineral rules, environmental clearance for the quarry from the SEIAA, and SPCB consent for the crusher, with capex of Rs 1.5 crore to Rs 4.3 crore for a 30 to 60 TPH plant and royalty as the biggest recurring cost.

  • Quarry, crusher and pollution consent are three separate permissions from three authorities.
  • Environmental clearance attaches to the quarry, not the crusher.
  • Aggregate, chips and M-sand carry 5% GST.
