The concrete jungle in Mumbai continues to grow with high-rises and with them rise issues such as fire safety. But it is learnt that only 907 housing societies from approximately 50,000 buildings (over 32 metres height—(10 storeys) in the city, have uploaded their fire-fighting measures certificates on the BMC portal this year. These certificates are mandatory for buildings over 32 metres high. The Mumbai fire brigade has appealed to such housing societies to upload their certificates. 

Almost all parts of Mumbai have skyscrapers (more than 32 metres in height - 10 storeys) but the BMC doesn’t have the exact number of buildings in the city. "It may be around 40,000 to 50,000," said an official from the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC).
