The existing Property Tax Assessment System in GHMC is not Citizen friendly and difficult to get an assessment of their Property. The citizen has to visit GHMC offices many times.
In some cases, the citizen is aggrieved with the assessment and not paying taxes. Due to shortage of staff and difficulty in assessment, 100% of Properties are not assessed to Property Tax.
To eliminate the difficulties faced by citizens and bring all the new properties to the Tax net, the online mutation and assessment of properties have been introduced. On registration of any existing property, which was already assessed to Property Tax/Vacant Land Tax, the property is automatically mutated in the name of the new owner without changing the existing PTIN/VLTN and Tax amount.

If the Registered property is new or not assessed to Property Tax or Vacant Land Tax, a new PTIN/VLTN is generated and sent to GHMC online. On receipt of PTIN/VLTN with property details from Registration Department based, GHMC is generating Property Tax to residential properties with a monthly rental value of Rs 1.25 per sft for Jubilee Hills Circle and Rs 1.00 per sqft for other Circles.
In the case of vacant land, the Vacant Land Tax is generated online @ 0.50% of Registration Value. On the assessment of their Property to Property Tax/Vacant Land Tax, citizens will receive SMS with two links one to download the Assessment Copy and another for Payment of property tax.
The new system will ensure that all the properties registered are assessed to property/Vacant Land tax instantly without any human intervention. There will be no pendency of Assessments in GHMC Offices.
