Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation [GVMC] — Reg Notice No: SN/[protected]: SPECIAL NOTICE OF PROPERTY TAX ASSESSMENT OR REVISION dated 05-Feb-2022

Address:

GVMC, Jail Rd, Ram Nagar, Visakhapatnam (Urban), India - 530001

Dear Sir/Madam,

The property tax has been recomputed, for the half year from April-2021, and while previously there was no "unauthorized construction penalty", it got added in the recent one.

My objections:
1. The apartment is 7 years old, and we never had an unauthorized construction penalty (which means everything was proper), how can it get suddenly added when there has no new construction in the premises? This is totally unacceptable.
2. The land size and plot areas are not taken correctly.
3. I have already paid the property tax as per the prevailing rate in April 2021 for the entire FY 2021-22. How can this be levied with retrospective effect from April 2021?

Hoping for a quick resolution,

Thanks and Regards,
T Phani Bhushan
