Listings in Chandigarh

2 example listings operating in Chandigarh

A provider that lists more than one city appears under each of them, as long as a current PSARA licence covers that state. Agencies are listed as Security agency in {city} with their rating and day rate. The agency’s name and contact details are released to you once a booking is confirmed. That is deliberate, so pricing stays comparable and nobody gets pulled into an off-platform negotiation before anything is on record.

Hiring in Chandigarh

What applies when you hire security in Chandigarh.

Security in Chandigarh is booked for offices and institutions, showrooms, residences, weddings and venues, and close protection for executives and visitors. All four roles on 20fourr can be booked here: security guards, bouncers, armed gunmen and personal security officers.

Chandigarh is a union territory with its own PSARA licensing. Mohali is in Punjab and Panchkula is in Haryana, so the tricity is three licensing areas, not one.

A Chandigarh PSARA licence

The Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005 requires every agency to hold a licence from the state or union territory it deploys guards in. For Chandigarh that is a licence issued in Chandigarh, by the controlling authority of the Chandigarh administration, under rules notified on 20 May 2021. A licence from another state does not cover work here.

Check the licence is current

A licence that was issued is not one that is valid. Of the 434 PSARA licences the national portal lists for Chandigarh, 247 have expired. Ask for the licence number and its validity date, and match the agency name to it.

Trained before deployment

The central model rules under PSARA, issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs in December 2020, set the training baseline: at least 100 hours of classroom instruction and 60 hours of field training over at least 20 working days for a new guard. Ex-servicemen and former police take a shorter course of 40 hours in class and 16 in the field over at least seven working days.

Questions about hiring in Chandigarh

Can a Chandigarh agency send guards to Mohali or Panchkula?

Only with separate licences. Chandigarh is a union territory, Mohali is in Punjab and Panchkula is in Haryana, and a PSARA licence covers the state or territory that issued it. An agency working across the tricity needs a licence from each.

How do I check a security agency's PSARA licence in Chandigarh?

Ask the agency for its licence number, the state that issued it and its validity date, and check that the licence is in the agency's own name. Expired licences are common: as of October 2026, the national PSARA portal lists 434 licences issued in Chandigarh, of which 187 are active and 247 have expired. 20fourr verifies every provider's licence against the issuing state authority before listing them.

Can I book an armed guard in Chandigarh?

Yes. Armed gunmen must hold a valid firearm licence, and 20fourr checks it before every armed assignment, not once at signup. Armed roles usually need more notice than unarmed ones because the licence and assignment checks are stricter. Moving cash is covered separately: Chandigarh notified cash transportation rules under PSARA on 4 December 2020, and cash-in-transit work has to meet them as well as the agency's licence.

What training should a security guard in Chandigarh have?

Under the central model rules for PSARA, a new guard needs at least 100 hours of classroom instruction and 60 hours of field training, spread over at least 20 working days. Ex-servicemen and former police personnel take a condensed course of 40 classroom hours and 16 field hours over at least seven working days.
