The BMC has received a total of 42,000 complaints.

Each ward will have an inspector, who will scrutinize the complaint and forward it to the assistant assessor and the collector (the designated investigating officer) to decide if the case has merit. The complaints will be heard and a final order passed," said additional municipal commissioner Rajiv Jalota. "Of the 42,000 complaints, 27,000 will be heard. Around 13,000 complaints pertain to the policy and question the basis of the capital-value based system and . These complaints cannot be considered." We are trying to minimize hearings as much as possible."
