In this blog I would be providing the details on how property tax for a new property (as in a newly registered property which does not have khata or pid) under Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) limits can be paid.
When should one pay property tax:
As soon as the property is registered under his/her name the property tax can be paid for the property.
As per norms known and read: if the property is registered before September of the year then the property tax for the property will be for the full year.
If the property is registered in October or later during the year then the property tax will be for half year. Penalty and interest add up to tax, cess and SWM.
Deadline for the payment:
If the tax is paid before the deadline set usually around end of May in a year, then the owner is liable for 5% rebate. If paid after the set date then the rebate is not applicable.
IF paying tax for an earlier assessment year or later during the year then currently BBMP adds penalty + 2% interest per month!
Process of paying tax for a property without pid and khata in BBMP limit:
1. Visit the BBMP office concerning the property for which the tax has to be paid.
A form will be provided to you to enter information concerning the property and the owner or person seeking to pay property tax.
Complete the form and attach a copy of the sale deed to it.
Submit it to the office at the counter in BBMP office.
2. Wait for the revenue officer to visit and verify the provided details of the property.
When the office has completed his verification he sends a report to the office.
3. The clerk creates an application for your property with the provided details in your application and report provided by the Revenue Officer.
An sms will be sent to the mobile no (provided in your form to BBMP seeking payment of property tax). Sms contains the application no.
4. You have two options now

If you do
not know how to use internet or if you are unsure then
a. Go
to BBMP office and show the sms to the clerk. He will complete your form with
the mode of payment.
You can choose to pay by cash/cheque at the bank or online.
If you choose to pay at bank then the clerk generates a
challan and prints it to
you. You have to now go to the concerned bank and make the
payment.
b. If you can do it yourself then go to
the BBMP website and do it yourself.
