4. There are more than 50,000 houses, approx 10,000 commercial institutions. What percent is the property tax collection here?
Ans:- We have sent notices to many commercial units as per DMC Act. People are coming to pay property tax. Every day at least 50 people are coming to pay tax for commercial units. One can pay property tax online also. It is an easy process. I appeal to all Dwarkaites to come and pay tax. The rate is quite nominal and all can easily pay tax.

5. It is assumed that in societies, 100% people pay tax. Is this true?
Ans:- This is not factual. We have modified the Sahabhagita scheme and we are advertising this scheme extensively. Under this scheme, if 90% people in society pay tax then they will get 10% of the total paid amount as incentive for development work in the society.

6. It is also rumored that tax collection from commercial complexes is very low. What is the actual situation?
Ans:- The commercial units are paying tax to quite an extent. We have surveyed commercial properties and have come to know that large numbers are paying taxes. Those who are evading tax we are sending notices to them.

Ans:- If residents pay tax, it is the residents, who will benefit. So, I appeal to all property owners to pay property tax and avail the scheme of MCD and participate in development of Delhi.
