The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has identified 203 societies involving 93,835 households which would get a rebate in property tax after having met the conditions laid down by the civic body. A society in Bandra East was one of the first few found eligible by the Peer Review Committee for the rebate in property tax.
Further, the zonal deputy municipal commissioners were also directed to begin a campaign encouraging societies to install underground/overhead tanks for improved water supply. There are plans to give concessions to such societies as well. In August, the BMC declared a 5 per cent rebate on property tax for societies executing 100 per cent segregation and sending zero wet waste to BMC, reducing the volume of dry waste by 50 per cent and for those processing wastewater and using it to flush toilets.
