[ecis2016.org] Here is all you need to know about the market value of land in AP in 2021 and 2022.
The market value of non-agricultural land in AP, the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, is revised every August in its urban areas. The market value in AP is modified every two years for agricultural land in the rural areas. Given the hardships owing to COVID-19, the revision of land values was stopped. The state government had prepared plans to increase the values way back in August 2021. But its implementation had to be postponed following requests from the public. Now, the government has decided to end this moratorium and increase the market value of lands in the new financial year.

Market value in AP: Impact of increasing market value
The government’s decision has resulted in skyrocketing land prices in the villages adjoining the new district headquarters. For example, land prices in villages near Bapatla have shot up to INR 10-14K per square yard compared to the prevailing rate of INR 3-4K. The workload in the land registration offices has doubled due to people attempting to register their land at the current prices.

Determinants of market land value in AP
A change in the guideline value will result in a direct and immediate change in the value of a property. This is one of the AP state government’s most profitable revenue streams. However, this doesn’t imply that the market value in AP will continue to rise indefinitely. A greater guidance value indicates that the property’s market value in AP will rise, whilst a lower guidance value indicates that the property’s market value will fall. That said, the guidance numbers are not set at random or only based on market demand; they are based on research and analysis of various criteria, including characteristics such as an area’s development.

The Inspector-General of Registration and Stamps (IGRS) makes every effort to keep a property’s circle rate as close to market rates as possible. This is to avoid any cash or black money transactions that could harm the state exchequer’s revenue, as property taxes account for a significant portion of a state’s revenue.
Some state governments have previously requested that their metropolitan boards or corporations collect property taxes based on market values rather than ‘unit area’ based valuations.
What is Guidance Value? How is the minimum selling price ensured?
Because market values are based on research conducted by the state government and are essentially scientific, they represent the lowest price at which property in a given location should be sold. The Guidance Value is the lowest price at which a property can be registered in a given area. Hence, the property will not be sold for less than the market value. This ensures that the seller receives a minimum selling price.
Registration of land at market value fixes payment of property taxes on market value
Even if a property is purchased for a value less than the state government’s Guidance Value, the owner must register the property at the government’s market value and pay property taxes based on the locality’s market value in AP.
Suppose the buyer paid more for the property than the state government’s market worth. In that case, the individual is responsible for registering the property at its actual value and paying taxes on the purchase price.
The phrases used to refer to a property Guidance Value vary by state. Every Indian state has its nomenclature regarding the guidance values and other legal provisions regarding land and property rights.

Why does the market value in AP vary?
Guidance Values can be used for various attributes in a given area. Agribusiness land, an apartment in a housing complex, a standalone villa, a plotted development project, and so on are all possibilities.
The development stage of a property will determine the guidance values. A property in a well-established neighbourhood will have a higher Guidance Value than one in a less developed locality or one in the early phases of development.
While the state government determines market value in AP of land based on studies and other factors, a seller has complete control over the price at which he sells a property. A buyer cannot compel a seller to sell their property at the Guidance Value, AP land or property’s market value determined by the government.
The stamp paper duty, registration fees, and property taxes on a property are all based on the guidance value, and comprise a major chunk of a state’s revenue.
