As per the notification, the NOC will be issued for three years and in case the ownership or trade changes, the owners will have to seek a fresh fire inspection certificate soon.
The owners of commercial buildings will have to pay a fee ranging from Rs 2,500 to Rs 5,000 on the basis of the size of their plot.
