I'm Willing to pay as per government rate, still they asked bribe
- Municipal Services
- House Tax
- Paid INR 4,000
I've constructed a new house in Chennai, but I was living in another area within Chennai. One day a tax officer went to my home to survey the construction and asked me to come directly. But I said just hand over the bill to tenant and I will pay through online. But he asked me to come directly, after that I took one day leave and gone to met him, he said he will reduce the tax amount to be paid for that I need to give 4000 rs to him, I said no need I will pay my tax as per government norms, but still he said, this 4000 is not only for him also for Assessor and other officials, without this money they will not allow me to pay tax and they will collect one day with penalty, I cant argue with him and given the amount. But after given the money also he fixed 1900RS for me (for 1200 sq ft) but my all my neighbors paying just 600 or 700 for the same measurement.
I've given bribe lots of time to traffic police, driving license, passport and so on, but this is my bad experience. In my point of view too much of rules and regulations by the govt is the main reason for this bribe (but 95% of the rules will not followed by the people, even govt know this), we people doesn't want to fight them for a long period.
