The death toll rose to eight Tuesday, with two more persons dying in different hospitals.
The 325-bed hospital did not have the fire department's no-objection certificate (NOC), mandatory for such institutes to function.
Nearly 375 people, including patients and visitors, were in the five-floor hospital when the fire broke out, an official had earlier said.
The blaze appeared to have erupted after a short-circuit near the rubber rolls stored on the ground floor, he had said.
