Karnataka High Court stayed a ₹67 crore property tax demand issued by the BBMP (Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike) against Hindustan Unilever. The court's stay provides temporary relief to HUL, preventing them from having to pay the disputed tax amount pending further examination of the case. The reasons for the stay could involve challenges to the assessment methodology, the applicability of certain tax provisions, or procedural irregularities in the demand raised by the municipal authority.
