Bengaluru Property Tax Settlement Scheme

The Karnataka government has announced a one-time settlement scheme for property tax defaulters in Bengaluru, effective until July 31. The scheme, declared by Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar, aims to encourage property owners to clear their dues without incurring additional penalties. This initiative is designed to provide relief to taxpayers while also boosting the state's revenue collection.

Under this scheme, property owners who have pending tax liabilities can settle their dues by paying the principal amount, with the government waiving off any interest and penalties accrued over the years. This move is expected to benefit a large number of property owners in Bengaluru, who have been burdened by accumulated interest and penalties on their overdue taxes.

The Deputy Chief Minister highlighted that the one-time settlement scheme is part of a broader effort to streamline and improve the property tax collection system in the city. The government is also working on enhancing the efficiency and transparency of the tax collection process, making it easier for property owners to comply with their tax obligations in the future.

The announcement of the scheme has been met with positive reactions from property owners and real estate stakeholders, who see it as a welcome relief during challenging economic times. It also aligns with the government's objective to increase compliance and reduce the backlog of unpaid taxes.
