For the convenience of the property holders, the PT-3 application form can be submitted to the nearest Liaison Office / Regional Office / Head Office to the Civic Welfare Center or Peth Inspector. Residents who have been given a 40% exemption before 01.04.2019, whose exemption continues, need not file the PT-3 application form again.
