Related Licences & Registrations

  • Shops & Establishments registration: every salon outlet needs it; multi-city chains register separately in each state.
  • Cosmetic manufacturing licence: required under the Drugs and Cosmetics Rules if you manufacture your own product line — white-labelling someone else’s formula still counts if your brand is on it.
  • Fire NOC: malls and commercial complexes insist on it before leasing space to salon chains.
  • FSSAI licence: only if you serve food or beverages in-store — most salons skip this, but wellness cafés need it.

ROC Filing Notes

  • ‘Aesthetic treatment’ wording can attract MCA queries about medical practice. Clarify that treatments are non-invasive and non-medical, or split clinical aesthetics into a separate healthcare object.
  • Franchising is fine as an object, but if it is a core line, give it its own numbered clause — ROC treats franchise operations as a distinct business.
  • Keep ‘ayurvedic therapy’ framed as wellness, not medicine. Claiming therapeutic cures invites trouble from both MCA and the AYUSH authorities.
