About the Single Window
Clearance System
The NMRDA SWCS is the official digital platform for business registrations, regulatory approvals, and investor facilitation within the Naveen Nagpur International Business and Finance Centre — delivering time-bound, transparent, and paperless clearances.
Overview
What is NMRDA SWCS?
The NMRDA Single Window Clearance System (SWCS) is the authorised digital platform established by the Nagpur Metropolitan Region Development Authority (NMRDA) to facilitate all regulatory clearances required by businesses operating within the Naveen Nagpur International Business and Finance Centre (IBFC).
Mandated under the Maharashtra Industry, Trade and Investment Facilitation Act (MAITRI Act), 2021, the system brings together 12+ government departments under a single digital interface — eliminating the need for applicants to approach each department separately for approvals, NOCs, and licences.
The platform assigns every registered entity a Single Business ID (SBID) that serves as a universal identifier across all departments, and is supported by empanelled Company Secretaries who guide investors through the entire registration and approval journey.
Our Mandate
Why SWCS Was Established
Reduce Compliance Burden
Eliminate repetitive form-filling, redundant document submission, and multiple departmental visits through a unified digital interface.
Time-Bound Approvals
Statutory SLA timelines under the MAITRI Act ensure no application is delayed indefinitely — with automatic escalation and deemed approval provisions.
Transparency & Accountability
Every action is logged. Applicants see officer assignments, timestamps, and reasons for any decision — creating a fully auditable process.
Investor Facilitation
Dedicated Company Secretaries are empanelled to guide domestic and foreign investors through every step of the registration and approval process.

Integrated Online Payments
Pay government fees for all departments through a single secure gateway. Supports UPI, Net Banking, and Debit/Credit Cards with instant e-receipts.
Deemed Approval Mechanism
If a department does not act within the prescribed SLA, the application is automatically deemed approved under the MAITRI Act — protecting your timelines.
