The 'CDMA, Telangana Property Tax Module' is an automated 'chatbot' service which has made people convenient for paying taxes virtually during pandemic times. KT Rama Rao, Minister of Municipal Administration and Urban Development, said, "Telangana is one of the fastest urbanising states.

With close to 20 lakh property tax assessments across urban local bodies, our citizens are still paying their taxes through POS machines, or citizen service centres."
