Chandigarh, July 29

Now, allottees of the Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) flats in three sectors can check the details of the payment made, penal interest for delay and the total outstanding dues.

Yashpal Garg, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), CHB, said the board had recently started the facility of online payment for all kind of dues on its website — www.chbonline.in.

All details of about 17,000 allottees of small flats, 1,700 allottees under the affordable rental scheme and about 4,500 allottees of commercial units have been made available on the website of the CHB. These allottees can generate a live account statement for their unit and see the details of the licence fee/ground rent paid, penalty for late payments and the balance due on a real-time basis by visiting the website of the CHB.

All data regarding the payment of residential flats has been made available on the CHB website.

“Now, one can see the details of payments made against the particular residential flat since its allotment. In case there is any discrepancy, the same may be brought to the notice of the account officer concerned, along with a copy of the receipt of payment, for reconciliation and updating the record,” Garg said.

Now, the allottees at Sector 63 and Sector 49 and Housing Schemes 616 Category-II, 336 Category-I, 13 Category-I, 51 Category-II and 160 two-bedroom flats (GSFHS-2010) in Sector-51A residential units have been given the facility to check outstanding dues against a particular unit and for generating live account statement.

He, however, clarified that “this being a transition phase, there is a possibility of errors in the computation of dues. The allottees are requested to bring such errors to the notice of the CHB for appropriate rectifications.”

He said efforts would be of great convenience to allottees of Sector-63, 49 and 51-A (specific schemes) in managing and keeping track of their payment/dues and they need not to come to the CHB office to ascertain their dues.

“The similar facility for allottees of residential flats of other schemes/sectors is being prepared and will be made available soon. However, the allottees of residential units can see the details of the payments made by them so far but they have to wait for some time to see the live account statement with the calculation of dues,” he added.

Facility for three Sectors

The allottees at Sector 63 and Sector 49 and of housing schemes (616 Category-II, 336 Category-I, 13 Category-I, 51 Category-II and 160 two-bedroom flats -- GSFHS-2010) in Sector 51-A have been given the facility to check the outstanding dues against a particular unit online and generate a live account statement.
