What is the Government Value (Circle rate) in Visakhapatnam?
The government value (also called the circle rate or circle rate) in Visakhapatnam is the minimum price per unit area at which a property can be registered. It is notified by the Inspector General of Registration & Stamps, AP and serves as the floor for calculating stamp duty and registration charges.
Even if a buyer and seller agree on a price below the government value, stamp duty is always calculated on the higher of the two — the agreed price or the circle rate. This makes the government value the most important baseline number in any Indian property transaction.
In Andhra Pradesh, these rates are published by IGRS Andhra Pradesh in Land: Rs/sq.yd, Apartment: Rs/sqft. Kubera normalizes all rates to Rs/sqft for consistent comparison across cities and states.
