About CircleRate.co.in

We built CircleRate.co.in to make pan-India circle rate data freely accessible to everyone. Circle rates — also called ready reckoner rates, guidance values, or jantri rates depending on the state — are government-published minimum property valuations used for calculating stamp duty and registration fees. Finding this data used to mean navigating a patchwork of state portals, each with its own interface. We scraped those portals, unified the data, and built a fast, searchable directory covering over 100,000 localities across 8 states.

Our data comes directly from official government sources: the Maharashtra eASR 1.9 portal (Inspector General of Registration and Stamps), the NGDRS national valuation system (covering Delhi, Jharkhand, Himachal Pradesh, Tripura, Manipur, Mizoram, and Dadra & Nagar Haveli), and HP Revenue Department PDF notifications. We update data as new fiscal year rates are published by each state government.

What We Offer

  • Circle rate lookup — search any locality, village, district, or taluka and see the current government-published rates.
  • Stamp duty calculator — calculate stamp duty and registration fees for 8 states, with gender-based concessions, city-specific cess, and slab rules.
  • Rate provenance — every rate shows its source: gold (official notification PDF), silver (portal with known fiscal year), or bronze (sourced from official portal, FY pending).
  • RERA projects — Maharashtra RERA-registered projects cross-linked to locality pages, so you can see what's under development in any area.
  • Circle rate guides — plain-language explanations of how circle rates work, how stamp duty is calculated, and what your rights are if you think a rate is wrong.

Why We Built This

Every property buyer in India faces the same problem. The circle rate for a locality exists — the state government has published it — but finding it requires navigating a different website for every state. Maharashtra has eASR. Delhi has a district-by-district table buried in the DC office portal. Jharkhand and six other states use the NGDRS system. Himachal Pradesh publishes rates as scanned PDF notifications. None of these portals talk to each other, and none of them are easy to use.

The result is that most buyers either rely on their broker's word for what the circle rate is, or spend an afternoon clicking through state government forms to find a number that should take thirty seconds to look up. That is not a technology problem — the data is all public. It is an aggregation problem. We solved the aggregation problem.

We scraped each portal, normalised the data into a single database, and built a search interface that covers over 100,000 localities. The search takes a fraction of a second. The stamp duty calculator does the maths for you. The provenance labels tell you exactly where each rate came from and how current it is.

Circle rates are set by state governments, typically revised once a year at the start of the fiscal year in April. Some states revise more often; a few have gone years without revision. We note the fiscal year on every rate so you can see when the data was last officially updated. Where we have the government notification PDF, we link to it directly.

Our Coverage

As of 2026, the directory covers eight states and union territories:

  • Maharashtra — 35 districts, approximately 31,000 rows of circle rate data from the eASR 1.9 portal (Inspector General of Registration and Stamps). Includes Mumbai, Pune, Nashik, Nagpur, and all other districts. Maharashtra also has RERA project data cross-linked to every locality page.
  • Delhi — all localities from the NGDRS national valuation system, covering residential and commercial rates by zone.
  • Jharkhand — district and village level rates from NGDRS, covering both urban and rural categories.
  • Himachal Pradesh — rates from NGDRS plus official PDF notifications from the HP Revenue Department, giving us fiscal year attribution for most sub-registrar offices.
  • Tripura, Manipur, Mizoram — all three covered via NGDRS. These are smaller datasets but fully included.
  • Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu — union territory rates via NGDRS.

States not yet covered include Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Rajasthan, Gujarat, West Bengal, and others. Each of these has its own portal with its own structure — they require separate scrapers. We are building coverage state by state. If your state is missing, send us a note — user requests help us prioritise which state to add next.

A Note from the Founder

I'm Ashish, based in India. I started building CircleRate.co.in after running into the same wall every property buyer hits — the data exists somewhere on a state government portal, but finding it takes hours of clicking through forms, captchas, and broken pagination. I scraped the portals, cleaned the data, and put it in one place because no one else had. The site started with Maharashtra and Delhi and has been growing state by state since. I have spent more time than I care to admit debugging NGDRS rate table HTML and HP Revenue Department PDFs, and I think the result is genuinely useful for anyone trying to understand what a fair property valuation looks like in their area.

I run this site personally. If a rate is wrong, a village is missing, or you spot a bug, please contact me — I read every message. The site is and will remain free; we cover server costs through advertising. We do not sell your data, we do not have a paywall, we do not gatekeep behind a login. The circle rate for your locality is public information and you should be able to find it in thirty seconds, not thirty minutes.
