The Ministry of Water Resources issued a proposal requiring industries that extract groundwater to recharge the same amount back into aquifers. A water conservation fee will be applied to these industries, with revenues used by states for groundwater management. Current rules for groundwater extraction require no objection certificates for industrial use and ensuring recharge of extracted water; a new proposal may replace this with fee charges instead.

Rules for Groundwater Extraction:
According to the regulation of groundwater extraction, there are two
mechanisms:
1. No Objection Certificates (NOCs) for development of extraction points:
Industries which are already drawing or proposing to draw groundwater through
energized means will need an NOC. Farmers can withdraw groundwater without
NOC.
2. Ensuring recharge of the water extracted (which as per the new proposal will
replace with charging of groundwater).
There are four other categories of groundwater users:
• Government infrastructure projects, government water supply agencies and
Group Housing Societies/ Private housing societies with only basic amenities
are not liable to pay water charge.
• Infrastructure projects will have to pay the lowest charges
• Packaged Drinking Water, Mineral Water, soft drink manufacturers, breweries
and distilleries comes under higher brackets.
• Mining projects and infrastructure dewatering projects have to pay the highest
charges. But, government mining operations are exempt from this rule.
