The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) collects property taxes annually from residents. The MCD sets a deadline. Based on the area in which your property is located, property tax would need to be paid to the respective municipal body. These are either the South Delhi Municipal Corporation (SDMC), the North Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) or the East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC). For East Delhi residents it has been made mandatory to pay property tax online from 24 April 2021. Payments to the EDMC be made through the MCD website by following a few easy steps.
