MCs need to adopt sound and transparent accounting practices with proper monitoring and documentation of various receipt and expenditure items.

MCs mostly rely on borrowings from banks and financial institutions and loans from Centre and State governments to finance their resource gaps in the absence of a well-developed market for municipal bonds.
