Guideline value by survey number, for any village in Tamil Nadu
The guideline value of a survey number is the rate per square foot the Registration Department fixes for it, in force since 1 July 2024. Pick the village, type the survey and sub-division, and you get that rate with its land class and office, or the rated sub-divisions of the same survey when it has none of its own.

The answer
From the register, with its date and source.
Nothing run yet. The answer appears here with everything this mini adds:
- The rate for the survey itself, or the nearest surveys the register rates in the same village when it has none of its own
- The revision date the rate was published, and the land class it is rated under
- The rate per cent, per ground and per acre as well as per square foot
- The whole plot at this rate: the extent in the revenue register times the survey's rate
- The stamp duty and registration fee a sale deed would pay on that figure
The survey guideline register
The minimum value the Tamil Nadu Registration Department fixes for each survey number in a village and each street in a town. Stamp duty and registration fee are charged on it whenever it is higher than the price in the deed.
- Survey rates held
- 4.95 crore
Rows of survey-wise rates across 20,276 villages, as the register summarises itself on 1 October 2026.
- Offices
- 595
Sub-Registrar Offices in 11 registration zones, each with its villages and land classes.
- In force from

The current revision. Every answer carries the date, because a rate without its date cannot be quoted.
How to find the guideline value of a survey number
- 1
Pick the village
Choose the district, taluk and village or town from the lists. They follow the revenue records, as the patta does.
- 2
Type the survey number
With the sub-division as the patta writes it, for example 568 and 1A. For a town plot, add the street it faces.
- 3
Read the rate and its class
The rate per sq.ft as the register publishes it, per cent, ground and acre beside it, the land class, the office, and the date it took effect.
- 4
Read what the plot is worth on paper
For village land, the extent in the revenue register times the rate gives the whole plot's guideline value, with the stamp duty and registration fee of a sale deed on it.
When it helps with land
Before you agree a price
Stamp duty is charged on the guideline value when it is higher than the price. The answer gives the whole plot's guideline value and the duty on it, so you know the cost of registering before the deed is drafted.
From a patta, not a map
When you hold the survey number but are not sure where the plot is, this needs no pin.
Checking a sub-division
A survey split into house sites and farm land is rated by class. The answer shows which class each sub-division falls in.
The guideline value is the floor the department charges duty on, not the market price. When the survey has no rate of its own, the rated sub-divisions shown are its neighbours, not its rate: match yours by the land class on your patta.
Questions people ask
How do I find the guideline value of a survey number in Tamil Nadu?
Pick the district, taluk and village, type the survey number and sub-division, and press Run. The rate the Registration Department fixes for that survey comes back with its land class, office and the date it took effect, 1 July 2024.
Is this the same figure as on TNREGINET?
It is read from our copy of the guideline register the department publishes, survey by survey, for the 2024 revision. The answer names the Sub-Registrar Office and the class, so you can match it on the department's own page.
Why does it show rates for other sub-divisions?
Some sub-divisions have no rate of their own in the register. The mini then lists the sub-divisions of the same survey that are rated, with their classes, and says plainly that none of them is your survey's rate.
How do I turn the rate into a rate per cent or per acre?
The answer does it for you: the rate per cent, per ground and per acre sit beside the rate per sq.ft (1 cent is 435.6 sq.ft, 1 ground 2,400 sq.ft and 1 acre 43,560 sq.ft). Where the register publishes a rate per acre, that figure is shown as published.
My plot is in a town. Does a survey number work?
Yes, but towns are rated street by street. Add the street the plot faces and its rate is matched first; without it the survey rate is used where one is published.
What is the stamp duty on this value?
A sale deed in Tamil Nadu pays 7% stamp duty and 2% registration fee on the guideline value or the price, whichever is higher. For village land the answer works it out on the whole plot's guideline value, from the extent in the revenue register. For any other deed or price, the stamp duty mini works it out.
Is it free?
Yes. A LandLens login is needed to run it.
