In recent news, South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC) and GeoSpatial Delhi has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to give Unique Property Identification Code (UPIC) to all properties in the civic body’s jurisdiction.
Unique Property Identification Code (UPIC) will enable SDMC to collect property tax easily.
The UPIC comes in action after the GeoSpatial Delhi claims that of 14.91 lakh properties in South Delhi only 4.31 lakh were under the tax net in 2012-13. Whereas the only 20 percent of the properties are non-taxable for various reasons and apart from this about 12 lakh properties falls under the tax net.
SDMC will be responsible to survey the properties and to providing unique codes to each property.
