FAQs
Can arrears be from a previous owner's period?
Yes - the dues attach to the property account. Buyers should verify and settle responsibility in the transaction documents.
Is there a penalty on late payment?
The municipal law provides for interest or penalty on delayed payment. Confirm the current amount on the official portal.
Do cleared arrears reflect immediately?
Reconciliation can take time - verify the account status after payment and keep the receipts.
