26 December 2007 I am having office in a residential apartment in ground floor. Corporation authorities has treated my office premises as commercial property and accordingly charged property tax applicable to commercial premises.

I want to know whether Chartered Accountants office premises will be treated as commercial or residential for the purposes of charging property tax by municipal authorities.

Running and maintenance of any business / profession shall be considered as commercial. The contention of the municipal authorities is correct.
