What is the Circle Rate in Bangalore? Here’s What Every Buyer Should Know
Circle Rate (Guidance Value): The Essentials
The circle rate (guidance value) is the minimum value at which a property can be registered in Bangalore. Even if a property’s market price is lower than the circle rate, stamp duty and registration charges will still be calculated based on the circle rate. These values vary by locality, property type, and size.
At Delight Eco Farms, we help buyers understand guidance values and ensure transparent, hassle-free transactions.
