tax and requiring all future payments of rent (whether the same have already
accrued due or not) by the person paying the rent to be made direct to the
prescribed authority until such arrears shall have been
duly paid, and such
notice shall operate to transfer to the prescribed authority the right to
recover, receive and give a discharge

prescribed
form or in a form to the like effect to be signed by the Collector–

(ii) by attachment and sale of the immovable property belonging to him.
The warrant may be addressed to an officer of the Excise and Taxation Department for execution, and in executing it he may obtain such assistance from other servants of the Department as he may consider necessary.

anything contained in any law and notwithstanding any rights arising out of any

under section 3 or as a penalty imposed under this Act in respect of any
building or land,
shall, subject to the prior payment of the land revenue, if
any, due to the Government thereon, be a first charge upon such building
or
land and upon the movable property, if any, found within or upon such building
or land and belonging to the person liable for
such tax or penalty.

returns at any time.– If the
assessing authority at any time desires any person, who is the owner, lessee or
occupier of any building or land wholly
or partly within the rating area, to
make a return with respect to any of the matters regarding which a return may
be prescribed,
it may serve a notice on that person requiring the return, and
that person shall, within thirty days from the service of the notice
send the
required return to the assessing authority:
