Delhi Weighs First Circle Rate Revision Since 2014, Up to 35% Hike Under Review
· Reported by RealtyPromoo
A Delhi government committee is finalising the first revision of property circle rates since 2014, with a hike of up to 35% under discussion across locality categories A to H and a proposed new top A+ category. As of mid-September 2026 no revised rate notification has been issued, so the 2014 rates still apply.
What this changes for a title check
Nothing to change today: every stamp duty and registration valuation in Delhi still runs on the September 2014 schedule until a notification actually issues. Flag as a watch item for any transaction expected to register after the new rates land, since a hike of the size being discussed would move the stamp duty due and could also get cited loosely as "prevailing circle rate" in valuation disputes over older sale deeds before it is even final.
