What guideline value is

The Tamil Nadu Registration Department publishes a government rate for land in every street and survey number. TNREGINET uses it as an official benchmark when determining the applicable market value accepted for registration. For a standard Conveyance (Sale), budget 9% total — 5% stamp duty + 2% transfer duty + 2% registration fee — on the applicable market value under TNREGINET's valuation rules. TNREGINET currently groups the first two components as 7% under “Stamp Duty.” Always check the live rate on TNREGINET before you sign.

Questions

How is guideline value different from market value?

Guideline value is the government-published minimum rate at which a property can be registered. Market value is what buyers and sellers actually agree, which is often higher. Duties and fees apply to the market value accepted for registration, and a price below the guideline benchmark ordinarily needs adjudication by the District Registrar.

How often does Tamil Nadu revise guideline values?

Through gazetted notifications from the Registration Department, with no fixed cadence. A notification can cover specific SROs or the whole state. The effective date is shown on each village page.

What is the difference between a street rate and a survey-number rate?

Villages with named roads are valued per square foot by street. Rural land and recently subdivided parcels are valued by survey number, often per acre. Both are published for the same village registry, and the values for the same land can differ.

Which Sub-Registrar Office is mine?

The office is decided by the village where the property sits. Search the village name above, or open your zone below and pick the office. Each office page lists every village under it.

Where do I check the official rate before signing?

The Tamil Nadu Registration Department portal at tnreginet.gov.in is the authority. This site mirrors its published rates for quick comparison, but the live TNREGINET rate governs your stamp duty on the day of registration.
