Howdy Sandeep!

Set the CFLAGS env variable before running configure.

Make sure you do a "make distclean" first. Like this in the borne shell:

make distclean; CFLAGS=-fPIC ./configure --enable-shared && make check

Also, you probably want to use the --disable-f77 --disable-cxx options to turn
off the building of the Fortran 77, Fortran 90, and C++ APIs. They are not used
by NCO. Otherwise you may have to set FFLAGS, F90FLAGS, and CXXFLAGS as well.

Good luck!
