Bengaluru: In the Damage-Control Training, Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) is considering releasing the penalty component and interest on tax requests that have been raised to thousands of property holders, alleg that they do not take into account zone reclassification while paying retrase.
This step emerged after the Drew Flak knife to serve a notification of around 78,000 property owners on charges of paying property taxes less than what they should provide for four years of assessment from 2016-17 to 2019-20.
Claiming that the owner has chosen the wrong zone to pay taxes, the Civic Agency has applied double the number of differences as a penalty and 24% interest per year.
With the property owner crying rotten that they were never notified of zonal reclassification, BBMP officials entered the course now.
“There is a communication gap that creates confusion.
We are exploring means to ensure that property owners are not burdened with improper punishment and flower components,” said the BBMP Administrator Rakesh Singh.
According to the self-assessment scheme (SAS) was launched in 2000, the property was classified below eight value zones, based on the guidance value published from localities or roads and the property tax rate remained appropriate.
Zone A withdraws the highest tax rate, while the F zone is in the lowest slab.
In the event that the owner of the property chose a lower zone wrongly, he had to double the number of differences and 2% interest.
According to the rules, the BBMP is mandated to reclassify the zone and revise the tariff once in three years (block point) because the value of the nature is subject to fluctuations based on variations in the rental rate and the current guide value.
BBMP reclassified the zone in 2008-09 and again in 2016-17.
“First of all, the nail itself violates the norms of block periods by failing to reclassify zones.
It also does not communicate about the latest reclassification of the zone to property owners and they immediately pay taxes based on previous classifications,” said the former Major and MLC Ramesh Congress.
“After receiving complaints and complaints from many property owners, we had referred to this problem to the administrator.
He looked into it,” said the President Commissioner of the BBMP Gaurav Gupta.
