Dear sir,
Re: payment of property tax for the year 2018-19 and earlier as per the demand raised by vmc for property no[protected]-020
With reference to the above, i would like to draw your attention that since 2009-10 to 2018-19 i have regularly paid property tax to the vmc as per the property tax bill raised by the corporation from time to time. A copy generated from the website is attached for your perusal.
During last year 2018-19 a bill of rs 4748/- was raised with no previous year arrears which was raised by vmc which was paid online by me vide receipt no 72010666 dated 17.07.2018. The payment is inclusive of rs 359/- as water charges. This is a clear indication and evidence that up to the year 2018-19 all the dues as demanded by the corporation have been paid by me on the said property. I have also verified earlier years bills also and there was no arrears from my side all the payment have been made as per the bill/demand.
Further, i have sold out that property in the month of may-18 and based on the above bill of property tax and receipt thereof it is purchased by the present owner with an understanding that all the dues demanded by vmc have been paid by me. Now, the purchaser sent me a letter and copy of the property tax bill for the year 2019-20 which indicate manual written figures of water tax rs 4400 and interest thereon rs 5622 put together previous year arrears of rs 10022/-. Who will pay the bill?
Being a senior citizen with 63 years age, such incident gave me shock that there is arrears to pay for the previous year for which actually there is no fault of mine. Since the amount was never demanded and mentioned in any of the bill, how and by what way the arrears is there. Being a retired executive of reputed psu bank i used to make regular payment of all the dues in a timely manner.
Therefore, i earnestly request you to look into the matter and see the reasons for such abrupt demand from the vmc and that too with penal interest. I humbly submit you that under the circumstances as stated above i am not suppose to pay any amount once the full amount paid as per the demand bill raised by the vmc.
I am sure that the matter is clear and definitely your intervention in the matter will provide me great relief.
Yours faithfully,
(M v rayvadera)
