Which one of the following is not the source of income of the municipal bodies ?
Answer: C
The pair that is not a municipal source of income is land service and sales tax.
Sales tax was a state tax, levied by state governments under the State List, and has since been subsumed in GST; land revenue is likewise collected by the state's revenue department. Neither is a municipal tax.
The other pairs are traditional municipal revenues. Property tax is the main one, and octroi on goods entering the city was a major source until it was abolished. Entertainment and advertisement taxes, market fees and water charges are also levied by municipal bodies under state municipal laws.
