THANE: The Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) on Tuesday said it has collected more than Rs 500 crore in property tax in the first seven months of the current financial year from April to October.
This tax was collected from 1.63 lakh property owners across eight NMMC divisions.

“The property tax department of the NMMC has achieved a remarkable feat by collecting over Rs 500 crore in taxes in the first seven months of the financial year 2025-26 from April to October. This leap in tax collection has been possible due to people-oriented initiatives, promotion of digital payments, various awareness campaigns implemented to create awareness among taxpayers, and the cooperation of citizens,” he said.
