The Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) has extended the property tax rebate period till the end of May. An order to this effect was issued by Chief Commissioner Gaurav Gupta.
The civic body usually extends a 5% rebate on property tax to citizens who make the complete payment in the first month of the new financial year.
This year, however, with the 14-day lockdown in place in light of the surge in COVID-19 cases, the civic body has decided to extend the rebate period till the end of May, the order stated.
