The letter directing the implementation of the revised water tax from Monday has been sent to all nine ward officers (zonal officers).”Earlier, the AMC was collecting a water tax of Rs 4,050 (per annum) for the last few years. However, the then Maha Vikas Aghadi-led government announced a 50 per cent discount on the water tax in May. It may be noted that there was a hue and cry of the citizens due to prevailing water scarcity in the city, therefore, the then guardian minister Subhash Desai announced the discount and also directed the administration to implement the decision.
