# MCD to pilot server-linked parking payments at five sites 2026-08-06T14:48:20+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet The Municipal Corporation of Delhi will next week sign a memorandum of understanding with a multinational bank to pilot cashless parking fee collection at five sites. The MCD will provide parking contractors with point-of-sale machines linked to its central server, replacing contractor-owned devices. The system will generate receipts based on parking duration and the notified rate of Rs 20 per hour. Under the proposed “No Parking Slip, No Payment” rule, motorists will pay only against an authorised digital receipt. Officials said the plan aims to curb overcharging and improve revenue. The MCD manages 408 parking sites across 12 zones, with capacity for more than 84,000 vehicles. Expansion across all MCD-managed sites will follow if the pilot succeeds. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com Tags: cashless payments, civic services, Delhi, MCD, parking Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/mcd-to-pilot-server-linked-parking-payments-at-five-sites/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
