Municipal taxes are taxes paid to the local municipality on properties owned by you. There is no uniform rate for municipal taxes, as different municipalities have different rates. Municipal taxes are also known as property taxes, house taxes, and municipality taxes.
Khajna means land in Bengali, therfore Khajna tax is the tax payable on the property that one owns. Therfore, to my understanding -
Khajna tax means Property Tax in Bengali and Property Tax and Municipal Tax are words usually used interchangably.
Hope this helps.
