New Delhi: The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has launched a new one-time property tax amnesty scheme, ‘Sampattikar Niptaan Yojana (SUNIYO) 2.0 – One Plus Seven’, giving property owners an opportunity to settle outstanding dues with relief from accumulated interest and penalties.

The scheme came into effect on September 29, 2026, and will remain open until December 31, 2026. Under the initiative, taxpayers are required to pay the principal property tax for the current financial year 2026-27 along with the principal dues for the previous seven financial years, covering 2019-20 to 2025-26.

Once the eligible principal tax amount is paid under the scheme, taxpayers can receive relief from interest and penalties on the covered dues, while older arrears prior to the seven-year period are eligible for waiver under the scheme. The MCD has described the initiative as a measure to help taxpayers resolve long-pending property tax liabilities.

The scheme also provides an instalment facility for taxpayers whose total liability is ₹5 lakh or more, allowing them to pay the eligible amount in equal instalments during the scheme period.

The latest amnesty scheme could provide relief to Delhi property owners who have accumulated tax liabilities over several years. It also gives the civic body an opportunity to recover outstanding property tax while encouraging taxpayers to bring their accounts up to date.

The MCD has advised taxpayers to verify their property details and outstanding tax liability before making payment. The official MCD portal has also listed the office order relating to the SUNIYO 2.0 One Plus Seven scheme.

Property owners seeking to benefit from the amnesty will therefore need to act before the December 31, 2026 deadline.
