GHMC MALKAJGIRI
Exemption of tax by collusion

Ushodaya Apts in SVO Colony has 25 Flats. Out of the 25 flats only nine are owners occupied. Rests are rented except two which are not rented. Rented Flats are registered in the name of Armed forces personnel who are exempted from paying house tax if self occupied. The apts came into existence since 2002. Many of the flats owned previously by armed forces personnel have now been sold to civilians whoe are in-eligible for exeption of house taxes. Flat No 405 is registerd in the name of Smt Meenakshi, a civilian. However she is not paying the house tax since 2006 as neither Sub-Register, Malkajgiri had informed transfer of property to the GHMC nor the present owner of the flat 405. Ghmc field officer who is well aware of the fact is concealing the change of occupation to GHMC. Flat No 405 Ushodaya Apts is therefore still exempted from paying house tax.

There are other category where a flat owned by a serving soldier is rented to a civilian i.e not self occupied to claim exemption of house tax. But the defence personnel are availing exemption in collusion with the society executives as welll as the GHMC field official without whose help (in exchange of some favour) this will not be possible.

In both ways GHMC is loosing a large chunk of house tax. It is happening in many other apts in RK PURAM, Sainikpuri etc. Will GHMC take the concerned field officials and the officers responsible for such loos of revenue to GHMC?
