The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has embarked on a transformative journey by harnessing the power of technology to revolutionize its property tax billing system. Leveraging the popular WhatsApp chatbot service, the PMC now seamlessly delivers property tax bills to citizens, marking a significant leap forward in administrative efficiency. Since the commencement of the current fiscal year, over 10 lakh property tax bills have been effortlessly dispatched through this innovative platform, streamlining the entire process and enhancing convenience for residents.
Gone are the days of time-consuming visits to ward offices and physical bill collection. With the bills now reaching citizens directly on their phones, the entire experience has been elevated to a new level of simplicity and ease. Residents, applaud this initiative, acknowledging the tremendous convenience it offers. The WhatsApp chatbot service goes beyond bill delivery, providing citizens with round-the-clock access to crucial information about property tax, outstanding dues, payment receipts, and necessary No Objection Certificates (NOCs). By simply sending a WhatsApp message to 8888251001, citizens can effortlessly retrieve the information they need, empowering them with self-service capabilities.
The user-friendly nature of this technological marvel has garnered praise from both citizens and civic officials. Not only does it facilitate seamless interactions with the public, but it also eliminates the challenges associated with physical bill distribution, especially when faced with incorrect addresses. The PMC's commitment to technological advancement extends beyond bill delivery. By leveraging data analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, the civic body is revolutionizing property tax assessments through cutting-edge satellite imaging. This approach not only covers existing areas but also includes newly merged regions, further enhancing the accuracy and effectiveness of tax assessments.
As a result of these proactive measures, the PMC has experienced a surge in revenue. The diligent detection and inclusion of new properties within the tax ambit have contributed significantly to this success. With a target of Rs 2318.15 crore for property tax collection in the fiscal year 2023-24, the PMC is poised to exceed expectations. Additionally, an anticipated Rs 300 crore from water tax, a component of property tax, further bolsters the expected total revenue to Rs 2,618.15 crore. Through its forward-thinking approach and commitment to technological innovation, the PMC is transforming the property tax landscape, ensuring a seamless experience for citizens and paving the way for efficient revenue collection.
