Affidavit for Grant of Tehbazari

Why This Form Is Important

• It is a sworn legal declaration, not an ordinary form - the deponent affirms citizenship, residence, identity, and income "solemnly," making any false statement liable to perjury consequences under law.
• It establishes eligibility for Tehbazari (a municipal license to vend/sell at a fixed public spot) by tying the applicant's identity, residence, and trade to a specific address and product.
• It creates financial accountability by requiring the applicant's annual income to be disclosed in both numerals and words, reducing the risk of later alteration or dispute over the stated figure.
• It contains a self-certifying exclusivity clause - the applicant affirms they do not already hold a Tehbazari in their own or a family member's name - which is the authority's main safeguard against duplicate allotments.
• The Verification clause converts the entire affidavit into a formally attestable legal instrument, dated and place-stamped, which is what allows the authority to rely on it as evidence.
