GBA Site Cleaning Charges — Official Table for Vacant Sites in Bangalore (August 2026)

📅 2026-08-11✍️ LoklFix Editorial⏱ 4 min read
Key fact: If GBA cleans your 30×40 vacant plot after August 15, they will recover ₹51,800 from you via property tax — cleaning charge + transportation. LoklFix will clean and fence the same plot for ₹28,000 before the deadline. That's a ₹23,800 saving, and you keep control of how it's done.

The Greater Bengaluru Authority issued a formal public notice on 10 August 2026 (Ref. No. CC/PS/PR/240/2026-27) signed by the Chief Commissioner. The notice invokes bye-law 18(1)(b) of the Solid Waste Management Bye-laws 2020 and requires all vacant site owners to clean their plots — the campaign's original deadline of 15 August 2026 has passed, and enforcement continues.

What makes this circular different from general notices: it includes a specific rate table showing exactly what GBA will charge if they clean your site themselves. These charges are recovered as part of your property tax bill under bye-law 18(1)(d)(ii) and Section 285(2) of the Greater Bengaluru Administration Act, 2024. You cannot dispute them. They will appear on your property tax statement.

The Official GBA Charge Table

These are the exact figures from the GBA public notice. The "Total You Pay" column adds cleaning + transportation charges — both are recovered from the owner:

Plot Size GBA Cleans (No Wall) GBA Cleans (With Wall) Transportation Charge Total You Pay
20×30 (600 sqft) ₹6,700 ₹7,700 ₹19,200 ₹25,900
30×40 (1,200 sqft) ₹13,400 ₹14,400 ₹38,400 ₹51,800
30×50 (1,500 sqft) ₹16,750 ₹17,750 ₹48,000 ₹64,750
40×60 (2,400 sqft) ₹26,800 ₹27,800 ₹76,800 ₹1,03,600
50×80 (4,000 sqft) ₹46,700 ₹47,700 ₹1,28,000 ₹1,74,700

GBA Charges vs LoklFix Charges — Direct Comparison

Let's be direct about the numbers for a standard 30×40 plot:

If GBA Cleans Your 30×40 Plot
₹51,800
Added to your property tax bill
You have no say in how it's done
If LoklFix Cleans Your 30×40 Plot
₹28,000
One-time payment, done in 2 days
Before/after photos, GBA-compliant docs

The difference is not just money — it's also control. When GBA cleans your site, you have no input into how it's done, which disposal site is used, or the timeline. You receive a bill with your property tax. That bill can affect future building plan approvals and property loan applications.

When LoklFix cleans your site, you receive before/after photographs, a completion report, and documentation you can produce to any GBA inspector confirming compliance. The work is done in 1–2 days. The cost is fixed upfront.

What the Circular Actually Says You Must Do

Point 1 of the notice: all waste, garbage and debris accumulated on vacant sites must be removed on or before 15.08.2026. Waste must be disposed of at designated disposal locations notified by the Municipal Corporation — meaning you can't just dump it elsewhere.

Point 2: if owners fail to clean by the deadline, the Municipal Corporation will undertake removal and recover full costs from the property owner via property tax — using the rate table above.

Note on the transportation charge: This is often overlooked. For a 30×40 plot, transportation alone is ₹38,400 — nearly 3× the cleaning charge. The circular specifies this is charged separately and added to the total property tax recovery. LoklFix's package includes disposal and transportation in our quoted price.

What is the GBA Public Notice dated 10-08-2026?

It is a formal public notice issued by the Chief Commissioner of the Greater Bengaluru Authority (Ref. No. CC/PS/PR/240/2026-27) under the Freedom from Waste campaign. It mandates all vacant site owners within GBA limits to clean their sites by 15 August 2026, and specifies official rates for property tax recovery if GBA cleans the site themselves.

Can I dispute the GBA recovery charge on my property tax?

The charge is levied under bye-law 18(1)(d)(ii) of the Solid Waste Management Bye-laws 2020 and Section 285(2) of the Greater Bengaluru Administration Act 2024. These are statutory provisions. Disputing them requires a formal legal process. The fastest and cheapest solution is cleaning the site before the deadline.

Does LoklFix dispose waste at GBA-designated locations?

Yes. All waste cleared from your site is transported to designated Municipal Corporation disposal locations as required by the circular. This is included in our package price — there are no hidden disposal or transportation charges.

What if my plot is larger than 50×80?

The GBA circular states that for sites exceeding the listed dimensions, expenditure will be proportionate to the site area. LoklFix also prices larger sites proportionally. Call us with your plot dimensions for a free quote.
