Answer: No BMC issues reported in the last 24 hours, and it responded normally at our last check on 24 Oct 2026, 4:09 AM IST.

Our automated check runs from one or more locations and may miss in-app problems; reports come from users across India. We only call something "down" when users confirm it too. Here's how we check.

About BMC

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC), also called the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM), runs Mumbai's civic services across 24 wards. Its portal handles birth and death certificates, marriage registration, licences and RTI, and links out to separate portals for property tax and water bills.

Civic complaints go through MyBMC MARG, the grievance portal and app. The {helpline_number} helpline takes complaints and emergencies at any hour.

If BMC isn't working

  • Look at the live check first When BMC reports climb at once, the MCGM portal is down across Mumbai. Wait for some time and try again.

  • Switch the page to English The BMC portal can open in Marathi. Use the English option in the top bar to change it.

  • Open the tax or water portal directly Type ptaxportal.mcgm.gov.in for property tax or aquaptax.mcgm.gov.in for water bills, rather than going through the main site.

  • Do not pay twice If money left your account but the page showed an error, wait 2-3 days and then download the receipt before paying again.

  • Keep your reference number handy Water bill pages ask for the CCN, and complaint tracking asks for the grievance ID.

Other ways to access BMC

  • Visit a Citizen Facilitation Centre Every ward office has a CFC, where staff lodge applications and complaints for you and give you a reference number.

  • Use the MyBMC MARG app File complaints from the MyBMC MARG app on Android and iPhone when the website will not load.

  • Write to your ward water engineer For a water shortage or dirty water, the water portal's Contact Us page gives each ward's Assistant Engineer (Water Works) email and landline.

  • Reach BMC by phone or WhatsApp The 24x7 helpline and the WhatsApp chatbot are on our BMC helpline page.

Questions

We check portal.mcgm.gov.in and count reports from people across Mumbai. When many reports land together, the BMC portal is down. Property tax and water bills sit on their own portals, so one may work while the other fails.

The MCGM portal links out to several systems. Property tax runs on ptaxportal.mcgm.gov.in, water bills on aquaptax.mcgm.gov.in, and complaints on MyBMC MARG at marg.mcgm.gov.in.

Any one of them can be slow on its own. If the main page fails, open the portal you need from its own address.

Open the property tax Citizen Portal at ptaxportal.mcgm.gov.in and choose Online Payment. Use Print Receipt afterwards for the receipt. The same portal gives the Bill Report, the Property Ledger Report and the No Dues/Payment Certificate.

You can do it without logging in.
  1. Open the Water Bill Citizen Portal at aquaptax.mcgm.gov.in.
  2. Choose Download Bills/Receipts.
  3. Enter your CCN number and click Proceed.
  4. Pick Duplicate Bill or Duplicate Receipt, then click View.

Wait 2-3 days, because bank records take that long to reconcile. Then download the receipt again from Download Bills/Receipts. If it still does not show, contact your bank or the payment gateway, or write to the water department's payment desk at [email protected].

Use MyBMC MARG, BMC's grievance portal at marg.mcgm.gov.in, or its app.
  • Log in with your mobile number and OTP.
  • Upload a geotagged photo of the problem.
  • Track it later with your grievance ID.
For an emergency, call 1916 at any hour.

Apply online on the BMC portal if the birth is already registered with BMC, or go to the Citizen Facilitation Centre (CFC) in your ward. Keep the registration number the hospital gave you. You can collect the certificate at the ward or have it couriered to your address.

Same day, when the sale is registered at the Sub-Registrar (SRO) office. The tax record then updates on its own, with no application, and the new owner gets an SMS, email and letter.

For older cases, apply on the property tax portal and the record updates within 3 working days. No property card is needed; the change goes by the sale deed or share certificate.

It is one ID for each building BMC assesses for property tax, shown on a map. Over time, numbers other departments use, like the water CCN, will link to it. For now, find your building on the MyBMC Building ID page and download its ID sticker.
