Raipur Municipal Corporation, or RMC, is the civic body responsible for the administration and development of Raipur, the capital city of Chhattisgarh, India. Established on 17 May 1867 as the Raipur Municipal Committee during British rule, it was later upgraded to a Municipal Corporation in 1973.

This civic administrative body administers the city's cleanliness and other public services like public health, clean streets and parks. The corporation ranked seventh in the Municipal Performance Index 2020 of the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA).
