Vacant plot or built house, one year pending or several — send us your Khata number or a previous challan, and we'll take care of the rest.
One thing to be upfront about: we're not a government office or the panchayat itself — we coordinate payment on your behalf, using the details you give us, for a ₹300 service fee, separate from the actual tax amount you owe.
Most people searching for property tax help online land on guidance written for BBMP (Bengaluru city) properties. That's the wrong system entirely if your property is in Hoskote or any other Gram Panchayat area — properties outside BBMP and municipal limits are taxed through the local Gram Panchayat instead, on a completely different government system. Getting the wrong portal, the wrong ward reference, or the wrong property record is exactly how people end up stuck or paying against the wrong record. We handle that part so you don't have to figure it out.
This applies whether your property is vacant land or a built house. An empty plot is still taxable — unauthorised and previously-untaxed properties, including farmhouses and vacant sites, have increasingly been brought into the tax net in recent years. Not having received a bill in the past doesn't mean nothing is owed.
Just send us whichever of these you have — we'll take it from there:
If you have none of the above, that's fine too — send us your name and the property's location (village, road, nearest landmark) and we'll help identify the correct record.
If your property tax has been pending for multiple years, the amount due typically isn't just the sum of each year's tax — most local bodies apply penalty interest on overdue amounts, which compounds the longer the dues sit unpaid. A bill that would have been a modest amount if paid on time can grow substantially across 3-4 pending years once interest is added.
The earlier you clear pending dues, the less you pay in penalties on top of the actual tax. If you're unsure how many years are pending or what the current total looks like, send us your details and we'll confirm the exact figure before you commit to anything.
A recent property tax receipt is one of the standard documents banks request during a construction or home loan process, and it's equally important if you're planning to sell — buyers and their banks will want to see tax payments are current, not pending. It's also typically needed for Khata transfer. Clearing pending dues isn't just about avoiding penalties; it's about keeping your documents ready for whenever you need them.
Send us your Khata number or a previous challan on WhatsApp — we'll confirm your actual dues and get it paid, for a ₹300 service fee, separate from the tax amount itself.
We'll say this again the moment you message us: we're not the panchayat or a government office — the ₹300 is only for coordinating the process on your behalf.
