“The revised rate will be around Rs 6,000 per square metre, which is more or less the same as the prevailing market rate in the area,” the ADM pointed out.
Likewise, 36 per cent increase has been recommended for Indira Nagar, 20 to 25pc hike for Rae Bareli, Vrindavan and Sharda Nagar housing schemes, 13pc for Rajajipuram and 10 per cent increase in all non-developed areas that came under the municipal corporation’s limit, said Shukla.
