Fire NOC for the building or unit
A building or industrial unit above a certain size needs a fire no-objection certificate before it can operate.
Start here
Apply for a fire NOC through the fire services or the municipal body before the building or unit starts.
Who is responsible
Buildings and industrial units above the prescribed height or occupancy need a fire no-objection certificate, which is issued after an inspection of the fire equipment and exits. The NOC is a precondition for the building's occupancy, so it should be obtained before commissioning rather than after.
