Ways To Calculate Bangalore Property Tax

The per square foot tax rate per month (Unit), which is fixed based on the address and street of the property (Area), is multiplied by the current property rate (Value) to determine the BBMP property tax.

BBMP is divided into six zones according to the Department of Stamps & Registration of Karnataka—similarly, the  BBMP property tax value changes based on the zones in which your property is situated. 

Below are the three ways by which BBMP property tax can be calculated:

  • Annual Rental Value: Under the ARV system, also known as Rateable Value, BBMP fixes the gross yearly rent of property and imposes tax based on the estimated value. It is calculated based on the property's amenities, size and location. Even Chennai follows the same system. 

  • Capital Value System: Under CVS, tax is calculated based on the property's market value. The Department of Stamp Duty usually fixes the market value of properties in CVS. Even Mumbai follows the capital value system.

  • Unit Area Value: The UAV is calculated based on the per sq foot rate per month. It is based on location, the street of the area where the property is located, then multiplied by the current market value of the property. Bangalore follows the unit area value system.
