Important Guidelines for Shared Roofs
If you reside in a co-operative housing society in Mumbai or Pune, you must obtain a formal **No Objection Certificate (NOC)** signed by the society's Chairman or Secretary. The NOC must state that the roof space allocated for your panels is approved for your exclusive use, or that the society has no objection to the installation.
Name Discrepancy Workaround
If the electricity bill is registered under a deceased family member's name (e.g. parent or grandparent), you must first apply for a **Name Transfer** on the MSEDCL portal. If name transfer is delayed, you must upload a registered **Gazette Certificate** or an **Affidavit** on stamp paper declaring legal heir status.
