Quick Summary

When purchasing a property directly from a builder in Bangalore, the key question is whether property tax is due from the sale deed date or the occupancy certificate date. Generally, the later of the two dates is used for calculating liability. However, for minor differences, the entire month might be considered. It's advisable to clarify with the builder, especially if you took possession on the sale deed date.

07 July 2024 MEANS I DID NOT FOLLOW OCCUPANCTY DATE IS 3/1/2020 AND SALE DEED DATE IS 12/01/2022 . I BECAME THE OWNER ONLY FROM 12/01/22 SO I WILL BE LIABLE ONLY FROM 12/01/2022 ?

07 July 2024 Generally in such cases whole month is taken for calculation, as the difference would be meager. If builder insists you may pay from 1st Jan, 2022, provided you have also been given possession from 12/01/2022.
