Vacant Land Tax Committee to recover over Rs 870 crore tax dues in Vijayawada
Vijayawada: Aiming to enhance the tax collection revenue, the NTR district administration has constituted a Vacant Land Tax Committee (VLTC) to collect pending vacant land tax dues from tax payers within Vijayawada Municipal Corporation (VMC) limits. The VLTC will comprise of the revenue wings from both VMC and NTR district administration along with town planning of VMC and district stamps and registration department personnel. It was found that despite Rs 237 crore vacant land tax demand, the civic body managed to collect only Rs 19 crore, totalling a mere 8.18% out of the total vacant land tax from tax payers in the previous 2024-25 financial year in the city. The VMC has around 15,000 vacant land tax assessments across the 64 divisions under three circles in the city. "The vacant land tax collection remains low due to the unavailability of the whereabouts of the original owners. Majority of the taxpayers reside in other places thus tracking and tracing of these vacant land owners is not possible for the municipal corporation personnel due to which the vacant land collection dues are mounting in the VMC," a senior municipal corporation official told TOI. More than Rs 870 crore vacant land tax dues to be paid by the tax payers were pending to the civic body in the last five financial years between 2020-2025, according to VMC records. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Family Adopted A New 'Dog', But When The Vet Sees It He Calls The Police Undo "With the help of the revenue department officials including VROs, MROs, and sub registrars the address details of the tax payers will be identified secretariat wise across all secretariats.

Disclose solar power price supplied to other states, HC tells SECI
Vijayawada: The high court on Wednesday directed Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) to disclose the price of solar power at which it was supplying to other states, at the time it entered into an agreement to supply power to Andhra Pradesh at Rs 2.49 per unit. The court also directed to place the orders of Andhra Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (APERC) approving the unit price quoted by SECI. CPI state secretary K Ramakrishna and then TDP MLA and present finance minister Payyavula Keshav filed separate PILs in the high court challenging the agreement made by the then YSRCP govt with SECI for supply of 7,000 MW of solar power at Rs 2.49 per unit. The counsel for the petitioner argued that SECI made an agreement to supply solar power at Rs 2.49 per unit with AP, but the same SECI made an agreement with Gujarat govt for supply of solar power at Rs 1.99 per unit. The counsel further said that the power purchase price should be derived through tender route according to the Electricity Act but it was not followed while entering into an agreement with SECI. Arguing on behalf of the state govt, advocate general Dammalapati Srinivas said the high court has allowed APERC to decide the unit price and it has approved the price quoted by SECI. The petitioners can challenge the decision of APERC if they have any grievances on the same. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like For all your EV needs ScottishPower Learn More Undo The counsel for SECI submitted that the per unit price of solar power used to be anywhere between Rs 2.52 and Rs 2.61 at the time when it entered an agreement with AP. The unit price offered to AP was the lowest at that time when compared to other states, he stated. Considering the arguments, the high court bench headed by Chief Justice Dhiraj Singh Thakur and Justice Ravi Cheemalapati directed SECI to submit an affidavit with details of prices at which it had made agreements with other states at the time of entering into the agreement with AP.
