NKDA collects Rs 83 lakh in New Town outreach camps

The New Town Kolkata Development Authority (NKDA) has raised Rs 83 lakh from property tax and mutation fees in the last three months. This money came from outreach camps held in various housing complexes in New Town. These camps took place at locations such as Sukhobristi Housing and Rosedale. Over 14 days, the NKDA processed 75 property tax assessments and 101 mutation applications. Of the total, Rs 39 lakh was collected from property tax and Rs 44 lakh from mutation fees. The goal of these camps was to help people pay their outstanding property taxes and simplify the mutation process. Officials aimed to create awareness and encourage timely payments to avoid issues with defaults. More outreach camps are planned for the coming months. The NKDA will also include commercial units in future initiatives to expand their efforts in New Town.
