The North Delhi Municipal Corporation has extended the last date for payment of property tax with 15 per cent rebate and additional benefit, to July 31, its mayor said on Friday. The last date earlier was July 15. North Delhi Mayor Raja Iqbal Singh said the NDMC has extended the last date of payment of property tax with 15 per cent rebate, along with 3 per cent 'COVID-19 vaccination' incentive for the year 2021-22. As per the 'COVID-19 vaccination' incentive, if all eligible members in a family have been fully vaccinated, then an additional rebate can be enjoyed, over and above the main rebate. Singh said that extension of date would facilitate the genuine taxpayers who could not do it earlier. On the other hand, the corporation would get more revenues and enthusiasm of people for vaccination would also increase hence this decision has been taken in the interest of the public, he added.
