Hyderabad: As per provision 108 of the CRDA Bill, the authority may levy specific cess for the implementation of specific capital infrastructure projects.

Mallela Seshagiri Rao, an advocate and a landowner of Rayapudi, said, “Presently there are property tax, water and sewerage tax, development and betterment charges.
But, the extra taxes will really become a burden.” The Authority may levy a betterment charge and some special impact fee may be imposed in the vicinity of the capital region.
