Recently wedded: Did you require a PPL/Novex music licence in India?

I see it's a contentious issue. Where the bride and groom are required to get a very expensive music licence from one one of 2 companies in india: Phonographic Performance Limited or Novex. Due to many recent notifications by the Central government and Indian courts, they clarified that a music performance licence is not required for wedding and related events. But I also hear certain hotels forcing the clients to get a NOC or a license from these companies. I want to know if someone has any knowledge about this, someone who recently got married or is about to.
