This is kind of unfair, the property tax that has been charged for the residents in this area should be the same as that of the areas in the other municipalities. Specially as the facilities that are provided are all the same.

the board has so far received nearly 500 representations for reassessments. SCB is now in the process of responding to representations by calling for meetings with the CEO, following which the actual tax will be fixed.

After the evaluation, the SCB sent out assessment notices to residents stating that the assessment is valid from April 1, 2012 to March 31, 2015. If the property owner is not satisfied with the assessment he can make representations to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) within 30 days of receipt of notice.

The Secunderabad Cantonment Board (SCB) took up the reassessment of residential properties last year after a gap of 25 years in 2014. Tax evaluators were sent to take building measurements to calculate plinth area and fix Annual Rental Values (ARV), which have increased since the last assessment was made several years ago.

Yes, but the amount of the property tax for the people residing in this region was almost close to four times the amount that they paid the last time for the property tax, that is why the residents are angry this time around.

The resident welfare associations said they would approach the new elected board members and protest against the unprecedented hike. But as afr as I know, no Board member can interfere in the issue as this is within the CEO’s power as per the Cantonment Act.

Hai Suraj More than 400 residential and commercial establishments in the tax defaulters list. The unannounced hike in property tax by the Secunderabad Cantonment Board is being criticised by residents and welfare associations. The residents in here feel that this decision is totally unjust,
