We help to follow the necessary legal rules and regulations for operating a security agency in India successfully!

PSARA (Private Security Agencies Regulation Act) came into effect in 2005, and it regulates the operation of private security agencies in India.  Anyone willing to start a security agency will have to get the PSARA license in order to run it legally. If the security agency has to offer its services outside India then it has to have the permission granted by the  Controlling Authority that consults with the Central Government before granting such permission.
