Steps to renew your license
- Take with you: Original + photocopy of current valid license + cash (about Rs. 800 per employee in your shop/organization)
- Before entering the gate, go to the photocopy shop on the right side and get Form B plus 3 payment challans from the shop.
- Fill up the simple form B. Also fill up Name, Address & renewal period in challans. Renewal period is typically 3 years.
- If you are paying less than Rs. 300/-, then they accept cash in this office itself. For more than Rs. 300, you need to pay the amount at Treasury
PS: The amount Rs. 300 may not be valid any more as rates have increased. Check first point above. - Take Form B, challans and original license inside the barrack. After entering the barrack, go towards right and show form B to any officer sitting along the left side.
- They'll calculate the license fees. You need to write the amount on the challans. The officer will then sign the challans.
- Get the challans stamped at the counter near the entrance. Officer's signature and the stamp are important. Without that your trip to treasury will be wasted.
- Now go to treasury. The security will guide you to one of the cash counters. Depending on the queue, be prepared to wait for up to an hour. Here, they'll accept the fees in cash, and give you 1 copy of the challan - stamped by them.
- Come back to the license office. Get a photocopy of stamped challan for your own record. Now pin together: Form B + License photocopy + 1 challan. Hand over this and the original license at a window outside the barrack. The guy will keep the pinned docs and will make a new entry on the original license before giving it back. The new entry on original license is the most important part. Do verify it shows number of years for which the licence is renewed.
- Take the original license and get it signed by the officer who sits in front of the main door to the barrack.
That's it, your license is renewed!

Best to go to the Shop act office in your area and get answers to your questions. If you get satisfactory answers from the staff, do post your experience/procedure on a blog or even in a comment on this blog.
