The AMC standing committee, acting on the proposal forwarded by standing committee member Bhavna Nayak, decided to give a rebate in interest for those comin up to pay property tax arrears. For property tax defaulters, the AMC has decided to give a 50% rebate in the interest, while the interest for the tax defaulters in slums and chawls will be 100%. Standing committee chairman Amul Bhatt said the rebate scheme will be available only for one month beginning January 16. Bhatt said the city has to recover Rs 3,700 crore from tax defaulters.
