The Urban Development Department has issued guidelines to simplify the e-Nagar Palika portal and make it user-friendly in the state. Urban Development Commissioner Bharat Yadav said that now the process of making new property IDs has been made easier. He said that in this regard, Chief Minister Mohan Yadav and Urban Development and Housing Minister Kailash Vijayvargiya had given instructions.
For registration of property, the Samagra ID has to be presented by the applicant. It will be mandatory to load documents related to the ownership of the property at the time of portal application for the new property. If the new property already has an electricity connection, it will be mandatory for the applicant to enter the electricity connection and consumer number. If there is currently no electricity connection at the property, then the application can be filed by selecting the No option. In case the electricity connection is obtained at the property in the future, the consumer number information can be updated against the property ID registered on the e-Nagar Palika portal through integration with the distribution company data.
After the online submission of documents, physical inspection of the property by the local body office will be mandatory. As part of the process of physical inspection, verification will be done by the investigating officer of the body through the mobile app. For this, the concerned body will ensure verification by recording the live photograph and geolocation of the property in the mobile app.
It will be mandatory to take this action within 7 days of receiving the application. There should not be more than 2 channels of approval in the process of registering property ID at the body level. This means that after verification by the investigating officer, the case will be displayed on the login of the Competent Authority for property registration through the portal and the Competent Authority will be required to approve or reject the property registration application based on the investigation report. It has been made mandatory to complete the process of making the ID by verifying the new property ID within 30 working days from the date of application.
Guidelines have been given for the process of changing of name after the transfer of ownership. After the application, the investigating officer of the body will complete the physical verification process through the mobile app within 7 days. Under this, photographs and geolocation of the property will be recorded.
The body will process the claim-objection for name amendment after the property's ownership transfer within 21 days of receiving it. It will be mandatory for the applicant to digitally sign the order and get it issued through the e-Nagar Palika portal within the time limit of 45 days. The self-assessment of new properties will be done using the process of creating a new property ID.
For self-assessment of properties registered on the e-Nagar Palika portal, the applicant will be able to submit information about his property online for every financial year on the e- Nagar Palika portal. The online application will have to be examined at the body level and as per the prescribed procedure, the application will have to be resolved within the time limit of 30 days prescribed under the Public Service Guarantee Act.
In such a situation, if an increase in property tax is found after self-assessment by the applicant and if the application is not resolved within the prescribed time limit, the self-assessment application will be considered deemed approved and the property information will be updated accordingly.
