NMC earns over Rs259 crore in property tax, 33% pay dues online
Nagpur: Out of 6.30 lakh property owners across the city only 4.26 lakh have paid the property tax for the year 2024-25. The
Nagpur Municipal Corporation
(NMC) collected a total of Rs259 crore in property tax, excluding the payments received from state and central govt departments, which add up to another Rs50 crore.
Over 1.41 lakh property owners, roughly 33% of those who paid their property tax dues, opted for online payments. These 33% online taxpayers paid a total Rs88.41 crore while availing rebates worth Rs11.58 crore under the NMC's 15% and 10% discount schemes. The remaining 2.84 lakh taxpayers paid through offline modes, contributing a significantly higher Rs170.93 crore and availing Rs25.78 crore in rebates under 10% and 5% concession slabs.
Among the zones, Laxmi Nagar recorded the highest number of online taxpayers at 28,103, generating Rs11.18 crore. Mangalwari followed with Rs9.11 crore from 17,606 properties. Dharampeth and Hanuman Nagar also recorded high online payments, collecting Rs7.22 crore and Rs7.27 crore, respectively. On the lower end, Satranjipura had just 3,980 online taxpayers, generating Rs1.19 crore.
The offline mode, however, remained dominant. Hanuman Nagar had 42,249 offline taxpayers contributing Rs9.34 crore, while Nehru Nagar and Lakadganj each drew close to Rs9.5 crore and Rs9.12 crore, respectively. Mangalwari again ranked high, with Rs10.76 crore from 29,598 offline property owners.

The preference for offline payment suggests a persistent digital gap, despite the corporation offering higher rebates for online transactions. The Rs88.41 crore collected online shows that tech-savvy property owners are gradually embracing the convenience of digital platforms, but a large majority still depends on physical visits to tax counters.
NMC's property tax department introduced differential rebate slabs to incentivise early and digital payments this year. The 15% rebate for online payments, introduced to ease citizen interface and reduce queueing at NMC offices, attracted over one lakh taxpayers but hasn't yet tipped the scale in favour of digital.
The civic body now faces the challenge of improving digital outreach while ensuring that the remaining two lakh property owners clear their dues to meet annual revenue targets. With property tax being a crucial non-grant revenue stream for the cash-strapped NMC, ensuring wider compliance and smoother payment systems remains a top priority.

Paint companies face profitability challenges amidst high competition
Mumbai: Investor woes in shares of paints companies may be far from over as the hyper competition in the sector and tepid demand are expected to continue squeezing profitability in the sector. With valuations remaining elevated despite the recent underperformance in the shares, money managers and analysts are less enthusiastic about their prospects in the foreseeable future. So far in 2025, Asian Paints is down 4.2% and Kansai Nerolac has fallen 4.5%. Berger Paints bucked the trend, rising 24%. In comparison, the Nifty 50 is up 6%. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: 1 simple trick to get all TV channels Techno Mag Learn More Undo Morgan Stanley said this 'de-rating' is not yet done. Agencies "While there is consensus on the sell side on growth and ratings, we think the exact extent of a potential de-rating for paint stocks is not yet understood," said the brokerage in a recent note. The apathy for paints shares among investors and analysts is a contrast to the situation three years ago when they were Dalal Street darlings for over a decade. The entry of deep-pocketed players like the Aditya Birla Group into the sector has resulted in companies focussing on fighting for market share, putting pressure on profitability. "The overall competitive intensity will remain high for the next two years," said Aniruddha Kekatpure, head of research at Edelweiss Mutual Fund. "If the new entrant executes better than expected, the stock prices of incumbents will likely continue to languish." Live Events The recent declines in paint shares have removed some froth of their valuations, which were considered among the most expensive in the consumer-facing businesses. "While valuations have moderated from their post-COVID highs, they continue to remain elevated amid persistent growth and margin pressures," Vaqarjaved Khan, senior fundamental analyst at Angel One. Khan said the estimated Price to Earnings (P/E) ratio - a popular valuation measure - for most paint companies still hovers around 48-55x, a rich multiple, especially when the growth outlook for FY26 appears clouded.

Here's when Elon Musk's Tesla is planning to launch its robo taxi service in US
Representative Image Elon Musk has announced a "tentative" launch date for Tesla's robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, set for June 22. The Tesla CEO made this announcement in a post shared on the social media platform X (earlier Twitter), indicating that he'll be travelling from Los Angeles to Austin for the kickoff. Previously, the tech billionaire mentioned a June launch window for the service. When inquired about the start of public rides for the service, Musk specified June 22 as the current plan. He also noted that the first driverless trip from the Tesla factory to a customer's house is scheduled to occur on his birthday, June 28. In his X post, Musk wrote: 'Tentatively, June 22. We are being super paranoid about safety, so the date could shift. First Tesla that drives itself from factory end of line all the way to a customer house is June 28.' Elon Musk shares video of Tesla robotaxi prototype in Austin by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah? IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Recently, Musk posted an eight-second video on X that showed Tesla's robotaxi prototype being tested on public roads in Austin. The clip showed a black Model Y SUV, marked with a 'Robotaxi' logo, navigating an intersection and pausing for pedestrians, without a human driver inside. Musk said the pilot phase will be limited, starting with 10 to 20 vehicles equipped with a new 'unsupervised' version of Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) software. These initial tests will use the Model Y, rather than the upcoming CyberCab, which is scheduled for production next year. He added that the rollout will be 'geofenced,' meaning the robotaxis will only operate within specific areas, and Tesla employees will monitor them remotely. While some Tesla fans are excited by the launch in Austin, critics, particularly those concerned about road safety and Musk's political affiliations, have raised objections and are planning protests.
