BBMP Clarifies E-Khata Notices Target Underdeclared Flats, Opens Digital Appeals

Opposition figures invoke RERA regulations, relying on a Supreme Court decision to call the levies unlawful.

Overview

  • BBMP Special Commissioner Munish Moudgil says notices apply only to owners whose declared tax-paid area falls short of Kaveri sale-deed records
  • Car parking charges remain separate from flat tax and are assessed at half the residential rate, as per BBMP’s digital comparison
  • An operational e-Nyaya portal now allows property owners to formally object or appeal notices online under the new system
  • BNP continues to demand withdrawal of the notices, alleging that some AROs still reject manual appeals despite portal availability
  • The BNP’s challenge cites the Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016, and the Supreme Court’s Nahalchand ruling on common-area taxation
