Debasish Sharma also mentioned that few of the educational institutions have dues upto the tune of Rs 50 lakhs to Rs 1 crore. However, after receiving the notice, one of the schools in Guwahati has responded to it and also paid 50 percent of the dues and said that the remaining amounts will be paid installments.
In a similar exercise, around 66 private hospitals and nursing homes were served notices by the civic body, asking them to submit their respective occupancy certificates.
Several such exercises have been conducted in the past to make the institutions aware of property tax and be alert while paying their taxes on time.
