Maharashtra Revises Ready Reckoner Rates

The Maharashtra government has announced an increase in ready reckoner (RR) rates for FY 2025-26, marking the first revision in two years. While the average state-wide hike stands at 3.89%, urban areas governed by municipal corporations have seen a 5.95% rise. Mumbai’s increase is just 3.39%, the second lowest after Nanded.

Solapur recorded the highest hike at 10.17%, followed by Ulhasnagar (9%), Amravati (8.03%), and Thane (7.72%). The revised rates, which influence property valuations for stamp duty, are expected to generate at least Rs 100 billion towards the state’s Rs 635 billion revenue target from stamp duty and registration.

Officials cited Mumbai’s limited land availability and market stability as reasons for its lower increase. Meanwhile, rapid development and infrastructure projects have driven up rates in Solapur and Navi Mumbai. The hike is likely to impact property prices, with industry leaders highlighting its effects on construction costs and approvals.
