NOC Letter from Society to Flat Owner for Renovation of Flat

Sometimes, for major renovation activities to be carried out for a flat in a society, the flat owner or tenants might have to seek a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the society committee in advance before starting any such activities. It is a permission taken in accordance with the rules and regulations of the society.

It is necessary to seek such NOC in advance because the society committee will then decide whether or not to allow such renovation activity in the near future because of any pre-planned activity and to take some actions based on this viz. issuing notice in general to all members of society to be careful of the construction works carried on in that flat, to put caution banners in the surroundings, etc as may be needed.

At first the flat owner will seek permission through a formal letter or email in writing and then only the society will issue the NOC. The society will not issue the NOC on their own suo moto.

The format of NOC from society could be as under. Modify it suitably as per your requirement. Delete whatever is not applicable.
