GHMC property tax: Calculation

To calculate GHMC property tax, the GHMC uses the annual rental system for calculation of property tax on residential, as well as commercial buildings. Even if the building is not actually earning any rent, the municipal body levies property tax, based on its potential to generate rent. Depending on the value attached to the property, a specific tax rate is applied. To find out the annual rental value of your property, you could use the GHMC property tax calculator online.

How to calculate GHMC property tax? 

The GHMC conducts surveys of every area under its purview and fixes a monthly rent on the plinth area per sq ft.

GHMC property tax calculation example

How the monthly rental value is decided

You could arrive at the monthly rent by multiplying the plinth area with the state-notified monthly rent value.

In case of a 500 sq ft home, its monthly value would be Rs 2,500, assuming the monthly value per sq ft is Rs 5. By now multiplying the amount by 12, one can arrive at the annual value of the property – Rs 30,000 in this case.

The annual value of the property must be divided in two equal parts – i.e., between the land value and the building value, as has been prescribed by the Hyderabad municipal body. This is done to decide the age of the building and extend rebate on tax payment.

Age rebate on building

Let us assume that a 10% depreciation is allowed on our building value, as it is 15 years old.

The annual rental value of the property would thus be:

Rs 15,000+Rs 13,500 (after reducing 10% or Rs 1,500 from the building value)= Rs 28,000

So, our total net annual rental value would be Rs 28,000.

Since the monthly value of the property exceeds Rs 300, the 30% tax slab would be applicable. On this value, a library cess of 8% has to be applied.

Property tax would be: 30% of Rs 28,000 = Rs 8,400

On the value, we have now reached, 8% library cess has to be imposed.

8% of Rs 8,400= Rs 672

Total property tax for the year: Rs 8,400+672 = Rs 9,072
