MCG to auction 37 Gurugram properties on March 16
The Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) has decided to auction 37 properties after their owners refused to pay house tax for a long period of time. According to an official, owners of these properties have not paid house tax for more than five years and crores of rupees were pending against them. The auction will be conducted on March 16. The official also said if any owner came forward with the pending payments even on the day of the auction, his/her property will be released immediately. These are private as well as commercial properties and many of them have not paid taxes since the formation of the MCG in 2008. The sealing of the 37 properties had been done on different dates in this financial year. Besides, the MCG had also sealed 300 properties before releasing them after the taxes were paid.
