Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) has decided to initiate a B register for revenue sites within its limits to increase revenue, similar to the model adopted by Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP).

Officials and corporates visited BBMP to learn more about initiative B register and collect property tax from the owners.

As per the corporation officials, there are 1.92 lakh properties within the corporation limits. The civic body has property tax arrears of nearly Rs 92 crore for FY20-21. MCC has targeted to collect Rs 140 crore as property tax for 2021-22.

The total amount that MCC had to collect is Rs 232 crore but managed to collect only Rs 100 crore.

Under MCC's limit, there are around 61 revenue layouts and 31,000 revenue properties in 65 wards. The authority and representatives have decided to initiate a B register like BBMP to collect property tax. BBMP registers such properties under B register for extending civic amenities.

Mayor Anwar Baig told the media that the team includes senior corporators, standing committee chairpersons and deputy commissioner M N Shashikumar visited BBMP and had discussions with BBMP revenue department joint commissioner Venkatachalapathy.

BBMP initiated B register in 2016 for revenue properties and was successful. The civic body has also decided to introduce a B register to collect property tax from revenue properties to provide basic facilities.
