CHB recovers Rs 8 crore from defaulters in March

The list includes owners of small flats given under slum rehabilitation schemes, flats given under affordable rental housing scheme and commercial and residential flats in different sectors and colonies.

The Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) has recovered Rs 8 crore from people who have failed to clear their pending dues in March, with nearly 24,000 defaulters still owing more than Rs 75 crore to the board.

The CHB had recently started issuing eviction and cancellation notices to defaulters. The list includes owners of small flats given under slum rehabilitation schemes, flats given under affordable rental housing scheme and commercial and residential flats in different sectors and colonies.

The CHB had already issued cancellation notices to 11,641 allottees of small flats and ARHC flats. Even evictions notices too had been beginning to be served. As some of them sought more time, the board on Thursday gave five more days to the defaulters.

Initially, notices were sent to only those defaulters who owe more than Rs 10,000 to the CHB. All the allottees were asked to clear their dues by March 25. Those who failed to do so started receiving eviction notices. The defaulters can pay pending dues through online payment or through e-sampark centres.

A senior board official said that they have left with no alternative but to initiate the process for cancellation of allotment of those units who have failed to clear their dues despite repeated opportunities. “Once a unit is cancelled, the allottee is required to vacate it and if the appellate authority allows its restoration then the allottee is required to pay all the pending dues, interest and revival charges also,” he said.

Recently, the CHB had carried out exercise like list of dues were uploaded on the board’s website, public notices were issued, special collection counters put up at Dhanas, Mauli Jagran, Maloya and CHB office complex, started online payment facility and payment facility at all e-sampark centres.
