Although a section of residents have been opposing the retrospective tax collection by the PMC, the civic body witnessed around 50 per cent jump in the tax collection in 2022-23 from the previous financial year.
While the Panvel Municipal Corporation (PMC) has given respite to residents by extending two months for paying property tax without penalty, the Bombay High Court refused to stay on the property tax collection by the corporation. Now, the next hearing is scheduled on April 18.
