Tnreginet guideline value

The TNReginet guideline value is the minimum price at which land and property can be registered Tamil Nadu.

For the uninitiated, state governments are responsible for assigning a monetary value to all the land and property under their jurisdiction. They assign a minimum rate to every land and property below which it cannot change hands. This minimum transaction rate is known by various names in various states of India – circle rate, minimum value rate, ready reckoner rate, guideline value or guidance value, collector rates, etc. The basic minimum value in TN is known as Tnreginet guideline value.

As is true in all states, the Tnreginet guideline value is revised from time to time to bring the guideline value of the property closer to the market rates. (To know the difference between guidance value and market rates of property, read our complete guide here.)

Tnreginet guideline value is based on the sales details of property in each category as recorded in the past two years and on-field inspections.
