What specific discount on penalties and interest did the BBMP’s OTS scheme offer to property tax defaulters?
## BBMP Property Tax One-Time Settlement Ends:
**Host:** Welcome back! Today, we’re discussing the recent closure of the BBMP’s One-Time Settlement (OTS) scheme for property tax defaulters. Joining me is [Guest Name], a tax consultant specializing in Bengaluru property regulations. [Guest Name], thanks for being here.
**
Guest:** My pleasure.
**Host:** Can you briefly explain what the OTS scheme entailed and why it’s getting so much attention now?
**Guest:** Sure. The BBMP’s OTS scheme offered a significant discount on penalties and interest for property owners who were behind on their taxes. Essentially, defaulters could clear their arrears with a reduced penalty. The scheme was beneficial for both the BBMP, as it recouped some outstanding revenue, and for property owners who could avoid hefty fines and potentially legal action.
**Host:** The article [[1](https://www.thehansindia.com/news/cities/bengaluru/bbmp-property-tax-ots-ends-double-penalty-from-dec-1-926354)]states that the OTS ended on November 30th. Does this mean property owners who haven’t paid up are now facing double the penalty?
**Guest:** That’s correct. The OTS provided an eight-month window for defaulters to settle their dues with a halved penalty. Now that the scheme has closed, any outstanding property tax payments will accrue double the original penalty starting from December 1st.
**Host:** So, what advice would you offer to property owners who are still behind on their taxes?
**Guest:** My advice is to act immediately. While the OTS has ended, it’s crucial to settle your dues as soon as possible to avoid excessively high penalties. The BBMP will likely start taking strict enforcement action against defaulters now that the leniency period is over.
**Host:** Thank you for shedding light on this important issue, [Guest Name]. This is valuable information for all Bengaluru property owners.
**Guest:** You’re welcome.
