Staying compliant with your municipal trade / health licence (PMC)
What you must do to keep a Pune Municipal Corporation trade/health licence valid: renew it each year, display it at the premises, and update it when your premises or activity changes. Local-body rules vary between corporations, so confirm the exact renewal window and fee on your municipality's portal.

Recurring — on a schedule
These come due on a cycle. Tracked, they drive your deadlines and reminders.
Renew the trade/health licence each year
Municipal trade/health licences are typically valid for a financial year and renewed annually — commonly around the start of the financial year (renewal window often near 31 March). Confirm the exact window, fee and process on the PMC portal; other corporations (PCMC, BMC etc.) differ.
- If you miss it:
- Operating on a lapsed licence can attract penalties, fresh-application fees and, in some cases, sealing of premises.
- Keep as evidence:
- PMC renewal receipt / renewed licence
Standing — always true
What an inspector checks at any time. Keep these in order continuously.
Display the licence at the premises
Keep the current trade/health licence visible at the business premises. Inspectors and the fire/health departments may ask to see it along with your FSSAI registration.
On an event
Triggered when something changes (premises, ownership, turnover).
Update on premises or activity change
Changing your premises, adding a new trade activity, or significantly increasing scale generally requires a fresh or amended trade/health licence before you continue. Register the change with PMC.
