not clear what is your personal legal problem.

Any posters inside the shop premises is not advertisement.
Sultan (Querist) 06 January 2014
Advocate Shroff, greetings, Sir said advt are outside the liquor shop, and such signs are within the term "advt " as per local Municipal Act, i.e. MMC Act 1988.

They would be exempted if they carry a STATUTORY WARNING VISIBLY

In mumbai you can find so many hoardings.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 07 January 2014
Yes, in Mumbai there are many hoardings advertising liquor and tobacco advertisements, but most of them do carry the statutory warnings too. Thus an exemption can be claimed on that basis.
Sultan (Querist) 08 January 2014
There are limits set for advt. Under NBC. As observed in apex court " action and not the section may be vulnerable"
