BENGALURU: The Karnataka High Court recently observed that a petition filed against a service provider before the Karnataka Real Estate Regulatory Authority (K-RERA) is not maintainable.

This ruling came as the court allowed a petition filed by M/s Columbia Pacific Communities Pvt Ltd, Bengaluru, a company engaged in providing specialized senior-care services. The petitioner had been collecting common area maintenance charges from residents of Serene Urbana Apartments located in Kannamangala, Devanahalli.

Columbia Pacific Communities challenged a January 11 order issued by K-RERA, which had ruled that a complaint filed by the Serene Urbana Apartment Owners’ Welfare Association against Ozone Urbana Infra Developers Private Limited, the project developer, as well as the service provider and others, was maintainable.

The petitioner argued that the association’s disputes with the developer were unrelated to its role as a service provider and that it was unnecessarily dragged into the matter.

The complainant-association maintained that the service provider was collecting common area maintenance charges from apartment owners and insisted that its inclusion in the proceedings was essential, as the dispute with the developer could not be resolved without involving the petitioner.

After examining the records, Justice M. Nagaprasanna observed that the association’s complaint predominantly involved disputes with the developer, Ozone Urbana Infra Developers Private Limited.

The complaint sought to restrain the petitioner from mortgaging land, infrastructure, and assets, as well as from increasing common area maintenance charges until issues with the Serene Urbana Project were resolved. The judge noted that most of the prayers in the complaint were directed at the developer and other respondents, with only ancillary requests involving the petitioner.

The court highlighted that the petitioner’s agreements with individual apartment owners were limited to providing specific services, as outlined in the “services agreement.” Justice Nagaprasanna remarked that the petitioner had no obligations concerning the development or other activities of the apartment complex. Consequently, the court held that the petitioner could not be held liable for the liabilities of the apartment owners or the developer.

The court emphasized that the petitioner was being unfairly implicated in the proceedings due to disputes unrelated to its role. “For the folly of others, the petitioner is sought to be dragged into these proceedings. In the considered view of this court, the complaint against the petitioner, who is only a service provider, is not maintainable,” the judge stated.

In its ruling, the High Court concluded that the complaint against Columbia Pacific Communities Pvt Ltd was not maintainable, affirming that the service provider could not be held accountable for the disputes between the apartment owners’ association and the developer.

This quarter’s footfall of 4.51 lakh reflects our dedicated efforts across Bangalore, Kochi, Hyderabad, and Bhubaneswar, despite challenges from shifting consumer preferences and natural disruptions, including landslides in Kerala and floods in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. Each park made significant contributions, underscoring Wonderla’s regional strength and the sustained popularity of our offerings.

 

A significant milestone this quarter was the grand opening of Wonderla Bhubaneswar, inaugurated by the Deputy Chief Minister of Odisha, which has expanded our footprint and strengthened our presence in Eastern India.

 

While discretionary spending showed caution, our strategic emphasis on growing non-ticket revenue and engaging higher-value visitors has supported profitability. This quarter also saw a notable rise in online bookings especially across our established parks in Bangalore, Kochi, and Hyderabad compared to the same period last year. This aligns with Wonderla’s focused efforts to expand its online presence each year. Wonderla remains steadfast in delivering world-class experiences and adapting to shifting market trends. Our ongoing commitment to innovation and operational resilience not only reinforces current growth but positions Wonderla to capture new opportunities within India’s expanding amusement and entertainment sector.”

BENGALURU: A consumer court has recently ruled against CanFin Homes Ltd, a housing finance company, for failing to return the property documents to a Bengaluru resident despite him having fully repaid his loan.

The court has ordered the company to hand over all the documents and also compensate the borrower with over Rs 1.3 lakh. C Sathyanathan, a 58-year-old resident of MSR Nagar in Bengaluru, took a loan of Rs 60 lakh from CanFin Homes Ltd in September 2014, at an interest rate of 11.20% per annum.

The loan, meant for purchasing a plot and constructing a house, had a 15-year repayment tenure with a monthly EMI of Rs 68,965. However, after quitting his job and utilizing his pension and savings, Sathyanathan decided to clear the entire loan in 2018 to focus on other family responsibilities.

In September 2018, he requested the return of his property documents from CanFin Homes, but the company failed to respond to his request.

Frustrated after waiting for a year, Sathyanathan approached the IV Additional District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission in Bengaluru and filed a complaint, accusing CanFin Homes of withholding his original property documents despite the full repayment of the loan.

In its defense, CanFin Homes claimed that Sathyanathan still owed Rs 1.20 lakh as a penalty and had violated the loan agreement, which required him to purchase a site and build a house. They argued that although he had bought the land, no house had been constructed.

After reviewing all the evidence from both sides, the consumer court ruled that CanFin Homes had shown a deficiency in its services. The court determined that the company had failed to present sufficient evidence to support its claim that Sathyanathan still owed them money.

The commission ordered CanFin Homes to return the original title deed and other related documents to Sathyanathan.

Additionally, the company was directed to pay a fine of Rs 100 per day, from the date of the court order until the documents are returned.

The court further instructed the company to pay Rs 1 lakh as compensation for service deficiency, Rs 20,000 for mental distress caused to the complainant, and Rs 10,000 towards legal expenses.
The housing finance company has been given a 45-day deadline to comply with the court’s ruling.

BENGALURU: The BBMP’s ‘One Time Settlement’ (OTS) initiative, aimed at recovering overdue taxes, has seen a lackluster response. With the July 31 deadline nearing, the civic body has collected just Rs 463.03 crore, leaving Rs 624.88 crore unpaid.

BBMP officials have collected Rs 73.9 crore in the Bommanahalli zone, with Rs 82.77 crore outstanding. In Dasarahalli, Rs 16.37 crore has been gathered, while Rs 22.21 crore remains. The East zone has seen Rs 70.57 crore collected, with Rs 87.14 crore yet to be collected. In Mahadevapura, Rs 109.37 crore has been collected, leaving Rs 140.04 crore outstanding.

In RR Nagar, the collection stands at Rs 33.78 crore, with Rs 49.74 crore still to be collected. The South zone has received Rs 71.94 crore, awaiting Rs 96.63 crore. The West zone has collected Rs 50.83 crore, with Rs 97.18 crore remaining. In Yelahanka, Rs 36.27 crore has been collected, with Rs 49.16 crore still unpaid.

An official noted, “Despite the launch of OTS on February 27, which aimed to ease property tax burdens by waiving 50% of penalties and interest, many property owners with overdue taxes have not participated. So far, only Rs 463 crore has been collected, well below the expected Rs 1000 crore.

Out of 5.51 lakh property tax defaulters, only 1.52 lakh have settled their dues under the scheme, leaving 3.24 lakh defaulters yet to take advantage of the opportunity. The BBMP had hoped for significant tax revenue through this initiative but has faced a tepid response from taxpayers.”

Despite issuing notices to 3.95 lakh property owners for overdue taxes, only 70,000 have settled their dues. The majority of property owners have not responded to the notices. Additionally, 5 to 7 lakh properties are yet to be brought under the tax net.

“While some property owners have participated, many have not responded to the notices. The BBMP had anticipated a substantial increase in tax revenue through this scheme, but the response has been lukewarm,” added another official.

BBMP Chief Commissioner Tushar Giri Nath stated, “It is time to act now and take advantage of OTS. We are encouraging citizens to utilize the scheme before July 31.

Following a review meeting at the BBMP head office on Monday, we found that approximately 4 lakh property owners are eligible, with 80,000 having already settled their dues.

The remaining 3.20 lakh property owners have until July 31 to avail themselves of the scheme and clear their pending taxes. For any queries regarding OTS, including payment details and locations, you can dial the toll-free helpline at 1533 for assistance.”

Meanwhile, regular property tax collection has also been slow. Between April and June last year, the BBMP collected Rs 2,287 crore, whereas this year, up to July 7, only Rs 1,758 crore has been collected.

This marks a decrease of Rs 528 crore from the previous year. The implementation of the OTS scheme is attributed to this decline. As of July 7, the collection figures are Rs 139.22 crore in Yelahanka, Rs 398.79 crore in Mahadevapura, Rs 60.37 crore in Bommanahalli, Rs 125.95 crore in RR Nagar, Rs 203.85 crore in the South zone, Rs 211.54 crore in the East zone, and Rs 294.21 crore in Dasarahalli.

BENGALURU: The owners of more than 5 lakh khata-less homes in the city will soon get the chance to take advantage of Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike’s (BBMP) one-time settlement (OTS) initiative and settle their property tax debts, avoiding fines and interest.

The Lok Sabha elections caused a delay in the March OTS launch, according to BBMP officials. Through the program, officials want to produce between Rs 800 crore and Rs 1,000 crore annually.

According to Special Commissioner for Revenue Munish Moudgil, about 5-7 lakh properties in the city are not subject to property taxes. DK Shivakumar, the deputy chief minister, has issued an order to make them subject to taxes by offering them incentives.

Owners without a Khata can use the OTS facility till July 31. BBMP

Certain property owners were not paying property tax since they had not received khata from BBMP. These owners can apply online. “They can make payments using the provisional tax number we will give them. If they pay it by July 31, the last day of the OTS program, they can save a significant sum of tax penalty and interest, according to Moudgil.

After confirming the paperwork, revenue officials will issue a khata in three months. Any excess amount paid will be deducted from the tax for the following year by BBMP officials.

How it works: Using a mobile device and an OTP, the property owner will be able to log onto the BBMP property tax SAS system. The encumbrance certificate will be retrieved from KAVERI-2 based on the owner’s entry of the registered sale deed or transfer deed number and the property’s data. The property’s GPS coordinates, address, and photo should all be entered by the owner.

The property owner will be permitted to proceed and pay tax if there is a match between the purchaser’s name in the information collected from KAVERI-2 and the owner details obtained through Aadhaar.

If there is a discrepancy, the matter will be sent to an ARO or a designated officer for review and determination.
A temporary SAS (self-assessment scheme) number will be generated for the property in the system once the name match and other details are verified. After that, the owner can fill out Form 3 with information on how the property is used and pay property tax, interest, and penalties by current OTS regulations.

BENGALURU: Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) is having a lot of trouble getting property taxes from some of the most prominent establishments in the city, including hotels, malls, developers, educational institutions, and charity trusts.

Approximately 3.63 lakh homes owed Rs 711.1 crore in taxes as of May 18. With 57,043 houses owing Rs 95 crore, Bommanahalli tops the list, followed by Rajarajeshwari Nagar with 55,073 properties owing Rs 54.31 crore.

Additionally, a difference of Rs 231.77 crore is expected to be paid by 1,66,557 properties.
“We are calling these defaulters and revising cases using an IVR system and sending them SMS messages every day.

They do not, however, make the overdue tax payments. Munish Moudgil, special commissioner of the BBMP (revenue), told TOI, “We will shortly begin special enforcement for recovery in accordance with the law.

Even though BBMP has previously made this list available to the public, many of the defaulters on it still do not pay their taxes. A significant source of funding for the BBMP is property tax, and the collection department faces ongoing difficulties because some properties have tax arrears dating back many years.

A significant source of funding for the BBMP is property tax, and the collection department faces ongoing difficulties because some properties have tax arrears dating back many years.

Numerous defaulters on the BBMP’s list have routinely disregarded numerous warnings over an extended period of time. Many property owners continue to be oblivious to their tax duties in spite of the BBMP officials’ attempts to ensure compliance, which include sending notices, sealing properties, taking possession of inheritances and immovable property, and even seizing bank accounts.

The bureaucratic procedure associated with these enforcement operations can be laborious and slow, which makes it more difficult for the BBMP to collect arrears.

“The defaulters bring a stay from the courts whenever we issue them notifications, which forces us to tie our hands. “What is the purpose of having a revenue cell if the stays prevent it from operating at its best?” Moudgil said.

In the hopes that many would pay up, we have so developed the OTS, a time settlement plan,” he continued.
A 5% discount is available under the scheme for payments made over a longer period of time.

Even with this incentive, many property owners are still averse to paying their debts, which is dishearteningly low compliance, according to Moudgil.

Property owners who have not paid their taxes on time have received several notifications. Form 13 has been sent out in response to those who disregard these letters, starting the process of entering BBMP’s claim into the Deputy Registrar’s office records.

The goal of this legal action is to impose a lien on the property, making it more difficult for owners to transfer or sell it without paying the overdue taxes.

“To improve accountability and transparency, we have made the list of the top defaulters available to the public. The BBMP intends to put pressure on the defaulters to make amends by identifying and publicly humiliating them. However, this strategy hasn’t always worked well, so it’s unclear if it will work better this time around, Moudgil continued.
