Those who fail to pay will have to watch their properties get sealed.

"The commercial establishments have been told to pay up or face action," said a senior official of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi.

The corporation will start its crackdown after the police agree to give them force to aid in the operation.

"The sealing will begin after August 15 because right now the police is busy with the Independence Day security arrangements," the official added.

The conversion charges are to be paid to the civic bodies for setting up commercial establishments in areas marked for residential purpose.

The Masterplan of Delhi 2021 permits certain commercial, professional or other activities in residential properties of some categories.
