Chandigarh, November 2
The Chandigarh Housing Board (CHB) has received Rs16.18 crore through 17,326 online transactions since January 2020.
Yashpal Garg, Chief Executive Officer, CHB, said the board had introduced the facility of online payment for all kinds of dues in October 2019 and now the allottees were not required to visit the office and could pay their dues online by visiting the website of the CHB, www.chbonline.in.
During October this year, an amount of Rs70.65 lakh was collected through 895 online transactions, he said, adding that Rs16.18 crore had been received through 17,326 online transactions between January 2020 and October 2021.
To encourage online payments, the CHB had decided to give a monthly reward of Rs1,000 each to 10 online payment transactions every month. A computerised draw to decide 10 winners for the month of October was held today. “Among the winners, three allottees deposited Rs366, Rs472 and Rs960, respectively but each of them have got the prize of Rs1,000,” stated the CEO.
The 10 winners include four allottees of small flats, two allottees of affordable rental housing and four allottees of residential units. — TNS
