Operating types II, III, and IV UAVs must enter into the CAA’s computer system and give operational details, according to the draft.
In addition, drone operators operating in categories II, III, and IV will now need to get a “Remote Pilot Licence” from the Civil Aviation Authority.
The regulations forbid taking off or landing in restricted airspace without the Director General’s (DG) or an authorized officer’s written consent. Every UAV needs to have a unique number made up of English letters and numbers, which it must register with the CAA and renew every three years.
UAV importers and exporters are needed to register with the Director General (DG), and Ministry of Defence permissions are necessary for category III and IV drones. Fines for infractions can reach Rs. 100,000, and if non-compliance persists, daily penalties apply.
