With pollution levels reaching the worst levels, the Commission for Air Quality Management (CAQM) has imposed the Stage-IV actions of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP 4) to manage the rising pollution levels. As the current air quality index (AQI) in Delhi is categorised as \u201csevere-plus\u201d, it has crossed the 450 mark. Because of this alarming AQI level, the government has implemented strict restrictions under the GRAP 4, including a vehicle ban in Delhi, a construction ban in Delhi, and shifting schools\u2019 classes to online mode.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>GRAP 4 Regulations Imposed in Delhi-NCR<\/b><\/h2>\n<table class=\"blog-detail-table\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Category<\/span><\/th>\n<th><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What&#8217;s Allowed\u00a0<\/span><\/th>\n<th><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What&#8217;s Banned\u00a0<\/span><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Truck Entry\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trucks carrying necessary goods.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vehicles powered by eco-friendly fuels like LNG, CNG, or electric energy.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Truck transporting non-necessary products.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Non-Delhi Registered Light Commercial Vehicles\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vehicles carrying essential goods.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LCVs registered outside Delhi\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Delhi Registered Diesel MGV\/HGV<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vehicles carrying necessary goods or services.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Diesel vehicles (BS-IV or below) that are in the medium and large-sized goods sector.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Construction &amp; Demolition Activities\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small personal constructions.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All major construction and demolition work.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Schools\u00a0<\/span><\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Offline and online modes both for class 10 &amp; 12 students.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shift to the online mode, with physical sessions suspended for most students.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What Is Allowed Under GRAP 4 Guidelines in Delhi NCR?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The GRAP 4 (Graded Response Action Plan) stage is enforced during severe air pollution levels in Delhi NCR. Under these guidelines, specific construction activities are either banned or restricted to curb dust and pollution. However, not everything halts. Essential public projects like metro work, highways, hospitals, and emergency services are generally allowed to continue. Tile installations that are part of essential repair work in occupied premises may also be permitted, depending on local authorities. Always check the latest DPCC (Delhi Pollution Control Committee) updates for clarity on permissions. Understanding what is allowed in GRAP 4 helps homeowners and contractors plan work better without facing penalties or delays.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>GRAP 4\u2019s Impact on the Tile Industry\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tile industry, particularly businesses involved in construction, manufacturing, and supply, is going to experience significant challenges due to GRAP 4 restrictions. Construction is an important element that is driving the tile sector, and the <\/span>ban on construction in Delhi<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has an impact on the entire supply chain.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manufacturing Delays: Tile manufacturing needs processes that generate considerable dust, including cutting, grinding, and mixing. Considering the <\/span>Delhi AQI levels<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> this <\/span>month<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, GRAP 4 has restricted dust-producing activities, thereby, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orientbell.com\/manufacturing-capabilities\">tile production<\/a> can slow down or even completely stop. Also, the <\/span>Delhi construction ban<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> means fewer raw materials will be required, and production lines may face closure or reduced hours. This may result in delays in order fulfilment and stock shortages.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reduced Demand: As there is a ban on <\/span>construction in Delhi<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the demand for tiles in homes and commercial projects is expected to drop. The <\/span>construction ban news <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">has already triggered concerns in the market, with tile suppliers bracing for a slowdown in sales. With very few new projects underway, the tile industry is most likely to see a drop in revenue, especially from the large construction contracts.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Supply Chain Challenges: Another consequence of the <\/span>ban on vehicles in Delhi<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is the restriction on transporting construction materials. For tile suppliers and distributors, this could result in logistical hindrances. Since the movement of construction materials is also limited, there may be delays in the delivery of tiles to renovation or construction sites, retail stores, and warehouses. These delays could lead to increased expenses and further disruptions in the market.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>GRAP 4 Construction Rules and Interior Work Restrictions<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">GRAP 4 building regulations categorically ban dust-producing activities\u2014like demolition, excavation, and outdoor cutting or laying of tiles. However, interior works in occupied residences, like small tile jobs or kitchen\/bathroom remodelling, may be permitted on certain conditions. These are generally permitted if they do not entail material transportation or excessive dust generation. Proper dust control methods\u2014like tarpaulin cover, sprinkling with water at the site, or dust screens\u2014need to be implemented. Construction workers and tile setters also must avoid outdoor material mixing or grinding. GRAP 4 tries to balance pollution abatement with permitting legitimate, non-polluting interior activity, especially in residences.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Conclusion\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Implementing GRAP 4 in Delhi-NCR is a necessary and urgent step in addressing the region\u2019s worsening pollution crisis. While the <\/span>vehicle<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span>construction ban <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">due to <\/span>Delhi\u2019s pollution<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are necessary to address the alarming high AQI, these restrictions have a substantial impact on various sectors, especially the tile industry. These measures offer a glimpse of hope for a cleaner, healthier capital city, which will lead to a more favourable business environment in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Delhi\u2019s struggle with air pollution has reached a critical point, especially during winter.
