Amritsar, December 28
Only three days are left to pay property tax without penalty. After December 31, property owners will have to pay a 10 per cent penalty on the payment of tax.

On the directions of MC Commissioner Sandeep Rishi, officials of all five zones are making people aware of paying their property tax before January 1, 2023 to avoid penalty.

To facilitate the residents, MC offices were open on public holiday too.
