In Gurgaon, property tax bills include garbage collection charges despite only private arrangement in place

What Happened
Gurgaon property tax bills now include garbage collection charges ranging from Rs 216 to Rs 540, despite the Municipal Corporation of Gurugram lacking permanent door-to-door collection systems. Residents manage waste independently through private arrangements costing thousands annually. RWA leaders questioned the charges, stating MCG provides no garbage services. An MCG official acknowledged the error and said the levy will be deferred until proper collection infrastructure is established.
