Haryana Government on a mission to rectify errors, initiates refund of Rs 5.19 crores to property owners

The Haryana Government has taken steps to rectify an oversight by offering refunds to property owners who mistakenly paid development fees on properties where such charges were not applicable. The decision to refund comes after the identification of approximately 1588 properties where owners had incorrectly paid development charges. These charges were mistakenly applied in various categories, including HSVP, HSIIDC, licensed colonies, CLU acquired properties, Lal-Dora residential properties, and agricultural properties. The Urban Local Bodies Department has promptly shared the property details with the relevant municipalities. To streamline the reimbursement process, a spokesperson from the Urban Local Bodies Department disclosed that affected property owners have been notified via SMS about the refund procedure. They are strongly encouraged to initiate their refund requests through the NDC portal. The department has allocated a dedicated fund of Rs 5 crore 19 lakh for the reimbursement of these property holders. Detailed instructions and the application process can be found on the official portal: https://ulbhryndc.org. As of now, 51 property holders have successfully submitted their applications on the NDC portal, and these applications are set for swift processing. The spokesperson underscored that personnel involved in this process have undergone training to ensure the efficient and prompt return of development fees to the property holders. However, despite these efforts, there are still 1537 property holders pending to file applications for erroneous payments made towards development fees. The authorities urge these remaining property owners to promptly visit the NDC portal, https://ulbhryndc.org, provide the necessary details, and actively participate in the ongoing processing by the department. The government remains committed to rectifying the situation and ensuring that all affected property owners receive their rightful refunds in a timely manner.
