@rajeshamlw tax revisions inevitable.fairness is key. Taxing Chennai's suburbs heavier than posh areas like Nerkundram & Manapakkam is deeply unjust. colourable exercise by GCC is unfair. Officials are to blame, not ruler

@MacroMatrix1 Kindly go through the factor used for arriving at property tax for Taisha and Manapakkam and compare Nanganallur area. Data is currently in website. Then come to conclusion
@chennaicorp@moovbuff@sumanthraman Not convincing. He was not able to answer why sub urban area was taxed more than that of elite areas like Nerkundram and Manapakkam. His tone was that Chennaities are living at the mercy of the commissioner !
The GCC revised property taxes for the first half of FY 2026–27, using a drone survey done in 2024. Now taxpayers are furious over unannounced hikes of 300% to 400%, while civic activists warn these increases will also reflect into Metro Water charges.

@mmeiyyanathan My old tax 400. New tax 3750. Can I continue to pay old tax? Pl clarify based on communication of GCC?
Nobody is blaming the Govt. But method followed by officials and partisan attitude of Officials.
@sumanthraman@chennaicorp No. Messages are sent through WhatsApp with payment option. Retrospective effect. Steep increase. TAISHA at Nerkundram spared. Manapakkam also spared.
@msg90_tweets Raising taxes is not sin. Partisan attitude of officers in fixing tax is questionable. Elite areas like Nerkundram and Manapakkam have been taxed less or at all. Whereas suburban areas like nanganallur have been 10 times more
@SavukkuOfficial@AadhavArjuna Why are you not taking up property tax issue. More for suburban areas and less for Taisha and Manapakkam where elite resides?
