What is Guideline Value?
Guideline Value (also called Ready Reckoner Rate) is the minimum price per square foot or square meter set by the Tamil Nadu government for buying and selling property. It is used to calculate stamp duty and registration charges during property transactions.
If you are buying, selling, or registering a property in Tamil Nadu, knowing the current guideline value is very important. You cannot register a property below its guideline value.
Why is Guideline Value Important?
- To calculate stamp duty before property registration
- To know the minimum price for buying or selling property
- To apply for home loans — banks use guideline value for loan calculations
- To avoid paying excess registration fees
- To verify if a property deal is legally valid
