04 Permits & licences

The naksa pass, filed and followed up.

Building permission in Lalitpur Metropolitan City runs through your ward office and the urban development section. We prepare the file, submit it, attend the technical queries and book the inspections. You sign; we queue.

Our licence class limits the contract value we may hold at one time under public procurement. For private work there is no such ceiling, but we hold to the same limit voluntarily so that no single job can starve another of crew or cash.

Three of our engineers hold current registration with the Nepal Engineering Council. Structural design is always signed by the registered engineer who did it — we do not sign other people's calculations.
