BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Ramanagaram Palike) had rolled out its one-time settlement (OTS) scheme for the payment of property tax which is ending today i.e. Nov 30. The special scheme excludes compound interest and penalties, thus bringing down the overall arrears of property tax significantly.
So far, nearly 2 lakh people have already paid this tax out of the total of 3.95 people on the BBMP 's list of defaulters. The response, therefore, has been below the expectations of the BBMP.
Starting December 1, property owners with outstanding property tax are likely to face penalties and interest.

1. You can first visit the official BBMP website: bbmptax.karnataka.gov.in, or https://bbmp.gov.in/

If you face any challenge with the online payments, the BBMP has provided an option to pay manually using a demand draft submitted to the respective zonal or joint commissioner's office.
