The Bombay High Court today directed actress Sushmita Sen to pay octroi duty of Rs 2.16 lakh on her Toyota Landcruiser to the Municipal Corporation of Greater Mumbai (MCGM) within three weeks.

The court also directed that as regards the penalty for not paying octroi, which is ten times the octroi amount, the Corporation will give a hearing to Sushmita.

The court also directed the actress to give a bank guarantee of Rs 10 lakh in favour of the Corporation.

Sushmita had challenged the levy of octroi and penalty by MCGM in the High Court.
