Instructions to collect tax in corporation area as soon as possible
Dhamtari. Municipal corporations are maintaining their record of lagging behind in tax collection. Only about three months are left for the end of the financial year. But still about 47 percent tax has not been collected. Campaigns were run from time to time for tax collection. But not much output was achieved. There is still a lot of rent to be collected in the Dhamtari Municipal Corporation area on subjects like property tax, consolidated tax, water tax, rent of shops, export tax, user charges. As far as figures are concerned, Rs 795 crore is to be recovered. Till now only Rs 349 crore has been recovered. Now looking at the recovery performance of the Municipal Corporation, it is difficult to believe that the remaining amount will be recovered in the remaining time. In this case, the poor management of the Municipal Corporation is not only the reason, but the common people not taking interest in paying taxes or trying to avoid it is also a big reason.
