Chandigarh Municipal Corporation Approves Easier Process for Separate Property IDs
Chandigarh's Municipal Corporation approved an amendment to Clause 18 of the 2003 Property Tax Bylaws to simplify obtaining separate property IDs for individual portions of shared properties. The change allows owners of separate floors in residential buildings to pay property tax independently without needing consent from co-owners, addressing issues caused by disputes or unpaid dues. Commercial and industrial properties still require all owners' signatures. Congress councillor Gurpreet Singh Gabi advocated for this reform to ease tax regularization for individual owners.
