Residents of the Patna Municipal Corporation (PMC) area now have the convenience of filing their property and municipal taxes from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. throughout the week. Alongside the newly launched 7-to-7 tax collection counter, taxpayers can also opt for online filing through the PMC website. This initiative aims to alleviate taxpayer burdens by minimizing queues and ensuring accessibility. To further enhance convenience, executive officials have been directed to provide additional computer operators and systems at tax counters in their respective circle offices.
In a bid to enhance convenience for residents, the Patna Municipal Corporation (PMC) has introduced a new tax filing system. Individuals living within the PMC area can now file their property and municipal taxes every day of the week from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. In an effort to relieve taxpayers and streamline the process, Mayor Sita Sahu, accompanied by the deputy mayor and empowered standing committee members, inaugurated this new initiative.
Previously, long queues were a common sight at the tax counters. To address this issue, the PMC has decided to increase the number of counters, ensuring a smoother experience for property holders. As part of this initiative, a tax counter will now be open on Sundays as well. To facilitate the process, all executive officials have been instructed to arrange for additional computer operators, including computer systems, at the tax counters in their respective circle offices.
Patna residents now have the option to pay their property taxes directly through the PMC's official website. By visiting https://www.pmc.gov.bihar.gov.in/Home.aspx and https://pmcptax.bihar.gov.in/pmc/public, individuals can conveniently complete their tax filings online. Moreover, to cater to the changing landscape of digital payments, property taxes can also be paid through various online payment platforms like PhonePe, Paytm, and GooglePay.
This latest development by the PMC showcases its commitment to embracing technology and innovative solutions. By directing resources towards improving the tax filing experience, they demonstrate their dedication to ensuring a seamless and user-friendly system for Patna residents.
The PMC imposes a property tax on the assessed value of properties within its jurisdiction. The tax rate varies depending on factors such as location, size, and usage. In Patna, property tax, also known as house tax, is calculated based on the property's annual rental value (ARV). The ARV is determined by evaluating the market value of the property and applying a fixed percentage. Previously, paying property tax in Patna was a tedious procedure characterized by long queues and extensive paperwork. However, the introduction of online payment systems and the newly launched 7-to-7 tax collection counter has made the process of paying house tax more convenient and streamlined.
