It is a financial source. Property is equally importance for people as income. Property is a kind of accumulated income. It can be save and store in the term of bank balance, land and building, stock, jewelry, investment, motor vehicles etc. The property can be divide in tangible and intangible assets, financial and physical, movable, and immovable. Property is a means of production and base for holding property. In other word, property can used for obtaining incomes. It is the index for calculating the taxpaying capacity of the persons, who hold property. Sometimes based on property ownership, the income tax also can be impose. In brief, the property can be define as a source for production, basis for obtaining income, it is a base for better lives that can be transfer to other and it can be divided in tangible and intangible. The tax imposed on this property has known as property tax. In Nepal, the first elected government introduction this tax. Property tax was been introduced by finance act 1959. It was been implemented under property tax act in 1960. Due to ineffectiveness in collecting revenue. It was replace by urban house and land tax later. Urban house and land tax was been introduced in 1962 for collecting Revenue from urban house and land property. Initially, Bhaktpur, Biratnagar, Birgunj, Nepalgunj, Rajbiraj,Janakpur and Butwalin 1963/64 and Bhairawa, Pokhara, Palpa and Hetauda in 1973/74. The tax was been introduced in Bharatpur in 1988/89. The interim government of 2047 again introduced the property tax in 1990 by the finance act in the beginning and by property tax act 1990. However, it was been again replaced by urban house and land tax in 1995/96. After the introduction of local self-government act in 1999, property tax in given to local bodies right now there are two variant of property taxes. House and land tax and unified integrated property tax. Local bodies are VDCs and Municipalities have the right to collects property tax where up the right of collecting unified property tax has given to Municipality. In simple word, a tax is a compulsory levy and those who are taxed have to pay it without corresponding benefit of service or goods from the government the tax payer does not have any 10 right to receive direct benefit from the tax paid.

  • Field Diary Birgunj ICD: Nepal's Largest Dry Port
    Field Diary Birgunj ICD: Nepal’s Largest Dry Port Sugam Bajracharya Research Fellow, Nepal Economic Forum About the Field Visit In collaboration with CUTS International, Nepal Economic Forum (NEF) conducted a field survey under the study ‘Enabling a Political-Economy Discourse for Multimodal Connectivity in the BBIN Sub-region.’ As a result, a team of enumerators from NEF visited the Birgunj Inland Clearance Depot (ICD), the Birgunj Integrated Check Point (ICP), and the surrounding city of Birgunj in December 2020. The objective of the visit was to make a ground-level assessment of the current scenario of the developments in port infrastructure, trade logistics, and the surrounding infrastructure that might play a pivotal role in the multimodal connectivity of Nepal and the BBIN sub-region. The visit also intended to hold stakeholder consultations to get a view of challenges in daily trade operations. Connectivity to Birgunj ICD and ICP The Birgunj ICD is located in the Parsa district of Province 2. The nearest city, Birgunj, is at a distance of 8 km from the dry port, and the nearest Simara airport is 23.4 km away. The ICP is located right next to the ICD at the Nepal-India border. The city of Birgunj is about 140 km south of Kathmandu and takes about four and a half hours to reach via the Kulekhani-Hetauda route. However, large vehicles like buses and trucks are only allowed to travel the Kathmandu-Birgunj route via the Prithvi Highway, which is about 300 km and takes approximately 8-10 hours. Therefore, a 15-minute direct flight from the Tribhuvan International Airport in Kathmandu to Simara Airport is the fastest option available to travel to Birgunj.

  • Evolution of Municipalities in Nepal
    EVOLUTION OF MUNICIPALITIES IN NEPAL: CHALLENGES AND PLANNING Gopi Krishna Pandey INTRODUCTION Urban center is an index of transformation from traditional rural economics to modern industrial unit. It is a long term process. It is progressive concentration of population in urban unit. Kingsley Davis has explained urbanization as a process of switch from spread out pattern of human settlements to one of concentration in urban centers. It is a finite process of cycle through which all nations pass as they evolve from agrarian to industrial society (Davis and Golden, 1954). In a more rigorous sense, urban center is such a place where exchange of services and ideas; a place for agro processing mills or small scale industries; a place for community and production services; a place for fair or hat (periodic market) or social gatherings; and place for transport service or break of bulk service. All these activities act as complement to each other, and are considered as a total strength of market force. Urban center is the foci of development activities for the rural development. Historical accounts show that some of the urban centers are in increasing trend and decreasing the number of commercial units. The urban centers which is located at the transportation node have chance to rapidly grow. Nepal is undergoing a significant spatial transition. It is both the least urbanized country in South Asia with about 17 percent of its population living in urban areas (based on 2011census data, CBS, 2011) and the fastest unbanning country with an average population growth rate of about 6 percent per year since the 1976s.

  • Foemation and Deformation of River Terraces in the Hetauda Dum, Central Nepal a Contribution to the Study of Post Siwalikan Tectonics
    Foemation and Deformation of River Terraces in the Hetauda Dum, Central Nepal A Contribution to the Study of Post Siwalikan Tectonics 著者 KIMURA Kazuo 雑誌名 The science reports of the Tohoku University. 7th series, Geography 巻 44 号 2 ページ 151-181 発行年 1994-12 URL http://hdl.handle.net/10097/45214 151 Formation and Deformation of River Terraces in the Hetauda Dun, Central Nepal A Contribution to the Study of Post Siwalikan Tectonics Kazuo KIMURA Abstract Situated on the southern fringe of the Nepal Himalayas, the longitu- dinal "dun" valley consists of polycyclic geomorphological units ; the Highest erosion surface, the Upper, Middle, Lower terraces and flood plains. The following three phases of dun valley development are recognized through geomorphological and sedimentlogical analysis. Pre-Dun phase : Older geomorphological units (the Highest surface and the Upper terraces) had developed as piedmont alluvial plains at the foot of the Lesser Himalaya. The vertical displacement of the Main Boundary Thrust (MBT) contributed chiefly to the supply of alluvial fan deposits. Until this stage, the study area had faced the Gangetic Plain. Separation phase : Analysis of the Middle terraces and their deposits reveals evident relation between the upheaval of the Churia Range and palaeogeographic changes of the study area. In contrast to the older surfaces, the Middle terraces generally indicate the trend of development from south to north, and their deposits also show the trace of south-north current. This means that the generation of the Churia Range cut palaeochannels flown from the Lesser Himalaya to the Gangetic Plain, and the Hetauda Dun was closed as an intermontane basin.
