A bakery ,per say, can not be termed as factory unless Directorate Factories of the concerned state issues license to carry on manufacturing process.Before issuance of such license, it is mandatory to obtain "consent to establish" certificate and for continuance of factory operations"consent to operate" certificate from the state pollution control Board . This is a statutory requirement to be fulfilled​ by the factory occupier.You are required to lodge a written complaint with the concerned pollution control Board with a copy to concerned director of factories.If tangible results are not received, file a petition with the National Green Tribunal of the concerned Zone making parties 1) Factory occupier 2) Factory director and 3) the state pollution control Board as respondents.Should you feel my professional assistance is required , contact lawRato.

If the factory situated in residential area without proper permission of the concern authority then you can make a complaint before the Municipality Commission.
But without detail discussion proper consult is not possible.

a factory may run in a residential area, if the particular factory has obtained a commercial license. but since you are facing problems regarding the factory. you can easily take legal actions against the said factory. for further better advice more details is needed.
