Raipur: The Chhattisgarh government has given a big relief to the middle class people buying property.

With this, the middle class families dependen
It is noteworthy that this decision taken in the cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister Vishnudev Sai will especially benefit those citizens who buy property through bank loan. Earlier, in the purchase and sale of property, it was necessary to pay registry fee on whatever was higher between the guideline rate and the deal amount. For example, if the guideline value of a property is Rs 6 lakh and the deal was done for Rs 10 lakh, then the registry fee had to be paid at the rate of 4 percent on Rs 10 lakh, which was Rs 40 thousand.
After the amendment in this rule, the property buyer can now quote the actual price even if the deal amount is more than the guideline rate and they will not have to pay any additional fee for this. Even if the property with a guideline value of Rs. 6 lakh is sold for Rs. 10 lakh, the registry fee payable will be Rs. 24 thousand at the rate of 4 percent of Rs. 6 lakh. In this way, there will be a saving of Rs. 16 thousand.
The special thing is that this amendment will help middle class families to get more bank loans on the basis of actual value. Apart from this, this decision will also help in increasing transparency and clarity in the property market and will promote the trend of showing the real value.
