📖 How Property Tax Calculator Works
A comprehensive step-by-step guide to understanding property tax calculation in India with real-world examples
🏠 What is Property Tax?
Property tax is a local tax levied by municipal corporations on property owners to fund civic amenities like roads, water supply, sanitation, street lighting, and public services. It's an annual tax based on your property's location, size, age, and type.

Annually (or Quarterly)
🧮 3 Main Calculation Methods in India
1️⃣ ARV (Annual Ratable Value) Method
Used in: Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, West Bengal, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Punjab
Formula:
Property Tax = Annual Ratable Value × Tax Rate × Factors
ARV is the expected annual rent your property could fetch. Municipality estimates this based on market rental rates in your area.
2️⃣ UCV (Unit Capital Value) Method
Used in: Delhi, Karnataka (Bangalore), Haryana (Gurgaon)
Formula:
Property Tax = Built-up Area × Unit Area Value × Age Factor × Floor Factor × Zone Factor × Tax Rate
UCV assigns a per-square-foot value to your property based on zone, type, and age. More accurate for metropolitan areas.
3️⃣ Capital Value (CV) Method
Used in: Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Kerala
Formula:
Property Tax = Property Value × Tax Rate
CV is based on the market value or guideline value of your property. Simplest method but can be higher in expensive areas.

Zone/Location Factor
Prime: ×1.3-2.0 | Developed: ×1.0-1.2 | Outskirts: ×0.8-0.9
