A Property Tax Receipt is an official acknowledgment issued by local authorities—such as Urban Local Bodies (Municipalities/Corporations) or Village Panchayats—confirming the payment of property tax for a specific assessment period. It includes details like owner's name, property address, amount paid, date of payment, etc.

Can I use a property tax receipt as proof of ownership?
A property tax receipt only confirms tax payment. It does not serve as proof of ownership. Ownership must be verified through documents like the Sale Deed or Title Deed or Certified Copy, which you can get from our Certified Copy/Nakal option in mypatta app.
Can tenants use the property tax receipt as address proof?
No, it is issued in the owner’s name and is not valid address proof for tenants.
Are property tax receipts transferable if I sell my property?
No, the receipts are tied to the property, not the owner. However, the new owner will need the previous receipts to verify that all taxes are up to date.
What should I do if there is an error in my Property Tax Receipt?
Contact your local authority (municipality/village panchayat) with the receipt and supporting documents to correct errors.
Is the property tax amount the same every year?
It usually remains the same unless there is a change in building status, property use, or government revision.
