Hyderabad, Mar 23 (TNT): The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) on Monday intensified its crackdown on top property tax defaulters.
GHMC Commissioner R. V. Karnan has issued clear directives to Deputy Commissioners to initiate strict action against major defaulters.
The move comes as the final deadline for the One-Time Settlement (OTS) scheme draws near. Acting on the Commissioner’s instructions, officials have already begun enforcement measures across various circles.
In one such action, the Katriya Hotel was seized by the Deputy Commissioner along with the Khairatabad Circle warrant team for non-payment of property tax.
The hotel has outstanding dues amounting to ₹6.16 crore, pending since 2017.
In the Goshamahal Circle, authorities sealed Swarna Transport, which has accumulated property tax arrears of ₹36 lakh.
Similarly, officials from the Jubilee Hills Circle sealed Shameem Sultana Cloth Mall, located on Road No. 10, Banjara Hills, for failing to clear property tax dues of ₹35.27 lakh.
