Section 354A MMC Act | Roof Replacement with Different Material Requires Prior Municipal Permission : Bombay HC
Bombay High Court rules that replacing a roof with a different material (e.g., Ladi Coba slab instead of A.C. sheets) constitutes an 'alteration' under Section 354A of the Mumbai Municipal Corporation Act, mandating prior permission. The Court dismissed reliance on a 1987 circular, reinforcing strict compliance with statutory provisions for property modifications.
