The last date for paying property tax in the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike's (BBMP) limits has been extended to June 30. The BBMP started collecting tax for the 2013-14 fiscal from April 1.
Addressing press persons here on Monday, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said that the five per cent rebate would be extended till June 30.
Last year, the BBMP collected Rs. 410 crore during the same period. The Assembly elections had affected BBMP's revenue generation. With most revenue officials posted on election duty, people complained that they were unable to pay taxes at the BBMP's help centres.
