Dear Sir / Madam,
You should go yourself and find out the status of the one time tax with the village office and if it is not payable, you should obtain a letter from them to that effect. So that if and when the builder files a case, you can mention all these points in your reply and produce a copy of the letter issued by the village officer.
Regards,
