The Municipal Corporation of Dehradun (MCD) has taken a step towards enhancing its paperless services by launching a digital portal for facilitation of easier payment of property tax by residents of slums in the city on Thursday. The portal was inaugurated by the mayor of Dehradun, Sunil Uniyal ‘Gama’.
The municipal commissioner Vinay Shankar Pandey said that the residents of slums can now pay their property tax using the online facility. Not just property tax but also they can fill the related form online at the official website of the municipality which is nagarnigamdehradun.com.
Pandey made the public aware by explaining the procedure to use the portal and to pay property tax online. He informed the residents that the payee will have login under the Malin Basti Property Tax Form via their registered mobile numbers.
After this the property owner will have to fill detailed information regarding the property along with uploading Aadhaar number, electricity/water bill, affidavit on a Rs 10 stamp paper, signature and photograph. After finishing this step an e-receipt will be generated this will include all details regarding the payable taxes of the registered property.
He further informed that on the basis of the generated e-slip, the payee can pay his dues online or at the MCD office.
The municipal commissioner said that it is a move towards making government facilities and services paperless.
