How to check BBMP/GBA Property Tax Payment Status? (2026 Guide)
Paid your BBMP property tax but not sure if it went through? Here is how to check your BBMP property tax payment status online in minutes using your PID or SAS number.
Quick Summary: (TL; DR)
Check your BBMP/GBA property tax payment status online using your BBMP/GBA PID or SAS Application Number through the official BBMP/GBA property tax portal. Verify payments, download tax receipts, view previous payment history, and resolve pending transactions. Keeping your BBMP/GBA property tax records updated helps with Khata transfers, home loans, property sales, and other legal documentation.
What are the Documents Required for BBMP Property tax?
You only need two things to check your BBMP/GBA property tax payment status online:
What You Need | Where to Find It |
PID Number | Previous tax receipt, Khata certificate or BBMP/GBA portal GIS map |
SAS / AP Application Number | Old BBMP/GBA tax receipt or property documents |
Assessment Year | The financial year you want to verify (e.g., 2025-26) |
If you cannot find your PID, log in to the BBMP/GBA portal and look at the GIS map section. Hover over your property on the map and the PID number will appear. Alternatively, check your old property tax receipt or Khata certificate - the number is printed there.

How to Download Your BBMP/GBA Property Tax Receipt? (Step-by-Step)
Your official receipt is crucial for several legal and financial milestones. You will need it as proof of clear titles during property sales, for initiating Khata transfer applications and as mandatory documentation for bank loan verifications.
Follow these steps to download your document:
Step 1: Open your web browser and go to the official portal at BBMPtax.karnataka.gov.in.
Step 2: Locate the main menu bar, hover over or click on the "Downloads" option and select "Receipt Printout" from the drop-down menu.
Step 3: Choose your target Assessment Year from the drop-down box and accurately input your SAS Application Number or PID Number.
Step 4: Carefully type the Captcha Code displayed on the screen into the designated text box, then click "Submit".
Step 5: Once your transaction records appear on the screen, click the link to open and Download the receipt as a PDF.
Important: Always wait at least 24 hours after making an online payment before attempting to download your receipt. The BBMP/GBA portal requires this buffer time to sync with the banking servers and update your transaction ledger. Attempting to download it immediately after a payment will usually result in a "record not found" or missing status.
What Does the Payment Status Mean?
When you enter your details on the portal, you may see different statuses:
Payment Confirmed - Your tax is paid. Download the receipt and keep it safe.
No Records Found - Either you entered the wrong PID or the payment has not updated yet. Try again after 24 hours.
Pending - Your payment is still being processed. Wait 24 to 48 hours. If money was deducted from your account but status is still pending after 48 hours, contact BBMP/GBA.
Dues Outstanding - There are unpaid taxes on the property. This could be for the current year or arrears from a previous year.
What to do when Payment is Confirmed But No Receipt?
This happens often. The money leaves your account but the BBMP/GBA portal does not show the receipt right away. Here is what to do:
Wait a full 24 hours. The portal updates in batches, not instantly.
Try on Google Chrome. Some browsers have loading issues with the BBMP/GBA portal.
If no receipt after 48 hours, note down your bank transaction ID and call BBMP/GBA helpline: 080-22660000
You can also raise a grievance at: BBMP/GBAtax.karnataka.gov.in/Forms/grievancesreq.aspx
Keep your bank statement screenshot as backup proof until the official receipt appears.
Common Problems and How to Fix Them
Problem | What It Means | What to Do |
Receipt not visible | Server processing delay | Wait 24 hours and check again |
PID not found | Older property may use AP Number | Try AP Number or SAS Application Number instead |
Payment shows pending | Transaction still processing | Check bank statement first; call 080-22660000 if money deducted |
Wrong property details | Portal data mismatch | Click Edit on property page; BBMP/GBA will verify |
