I had received a notice no. 6649 dated 18.12.2012 (D. N 52 dated 20.06.2013), wherein i was asked to pay the difference of property tax for the period from 2004-05 to 2007-08. I had paid rs. 2, 945/- through chq. No. 433990 of hdfc bank, dwarka branch as difference from 2004-05 to 2007-08 at property tax department, sdmc, kakraula housing complex, nazafgarh zone, new delhi. The receipt no. Bg 014259 dated 31.03.2014 was issued subsequently.

All the receipts mentioned above are uploaded on the online portal of sdmc, property tax department.

It is evident from the information provided above, that all the payment of property tax has been made on time and there is no default for any period of time. It is also evident that the difference was also paid for the period from 2004-05 to 2007-08 in 2014 itself.

It is to bring to your kind attention, that all bills are generated by mcd online and there has been no mention of any previous arrears/ fines / penalty due on the property mentioned above.

The demand of property tax and interest in the show cause notice is not understood.
1. How can a demand be raised for the property tax of year[protected] after more then 15 years. There was no intimation from the mcd in last 15 years for any pendency of property tax. Every year the challan is issued by mcd online and there is no mention of any previous arrears?
2. The interest is calculated till 2019. When there is no bill/challan raised, then how can interest is charged till 2019?
3.in year 2014, all pending/difference of property tax was deposited to mcd. Has there been any other difference, it would also have been brought to my notice and has been recovered at that time itself. How is it possible that the same department mcd is asking for the difference of property tax at different time for the same period?
4. The amount of rs. 52, 800/- is also not clear. How this amount is calculated, for which period and using which parameters. The annual property tax even today is not more then rs. 7, 500/-. Then how come property tax of rs. 52, 800/- is calculated?

I request you to kindly look into this matter. It seems that there is some error. Either mcd has not correct detail of the property or of the payments made by me. Kindly provide the correct details. As per my knowledge, i had paid all taxes on time and does not owe any amount to mcd for property tax.

Yours sincerely
Sanjeev goel
