Overview

Bill Genie is an automated bill generation system developed on the DIGIT platform. It enables citizens to pay property tax in a simple, smooth and transparent manner.

It is possible for the ULB employees to set calendar calendar triggers to generate  generate bills for the amount of property tax payable. This allows the ULB to share the bills with citizens in advance. Citizens review their bill and pay it online using the payment link shared in the bill. Since the bills are provided in advance, citizens get lead time to plan for the finances to pay their tax.The application also allows the ULB to group, merge and download bills for field distribution.  Citizens get email and SMS notifications for pending property tax dues as reminders on or before the due date. 

The Bill Genie application makes it effortless for citizens who do not have any changes in their property records, to pay for the services consumed. This layer of citizens is a significant number, allowing ULBs to increase revenue by moving away from “citizen-initiated” to “ULB-initiated” collection drives.
