After making a study of property tax papers of MC Chandigarh I have come to following conclusions for necessary action by New MC Commissioner:
The last date for payment of property tax with 20% rebate will come to an end on 31st May .In this regards it is pointed out that records of MC are not readily available on line .The process is going on these days as such last date with 20% rebate may extended to 30th June so as to enable us to pay correct property tax as per latest calculations done by MC
As Zone plan fr the purpose of property tax three zones have made and sector 1 to 19 and 26.27.28 are in first zone fir top rate of property tax .Sector 20 to 25 ,sector 29 to 38 and SCF ,ind area,mani majra in other zone attracting property tax @1.6 and .80 pause and rest of UT in third zone in Southern UT attracting lowest rates of property tax.These zones were made many years back and keeping in view the market conditions rates of many properties have enhanced as such Zoning plan nerds a review and rationalisation which may result in increase of revenue to MC
MC allows a rebate of 20% fir payments of property tax hoti 31st May and after that it charges 25% extra with interest 12% as such there is increase of 57% in property tax if you fail to pay upto 31st May .When we are paying taxes in advance than charging of penalty and interest is not justified.
