Calculation of KMC Property Tax - Online

The Unit Area Assessment (UAA) system was passed in March 2017 for the calculation of property tax. Under the system, the property tax can be calculated by the owners. The introduction of UAA has ensured the removal of ambiguity and subjectivity that was present in the previous system.

Unit Area Assessment - Important Points

1. As per the UAA system, Kolkata has 293 blocks and categories from A to G. The division is based on the property's infrastructure, facilities, and market value.
2. There are around 6 lakh taxpayers that are covered under the new system.
3. A Base Unit Are Value (BUAV) will be assigned to every category. The BUAV will be the highest for category A and lowest for category G.

Calculation of Property Tax - Formula

The formula that is used to calculate the property tax under the UAA system is mentioned below:

Annual Tax = BUAV x Space that is covered/ Area of the land x Rate of tax (inclusive of HB tax) x Occupancy MF value x Structure MF value x Age MF value x Usage MF value x Location MF value

It is vital that all the records that are present in the UAA are up to date and no dues are pending. In the case of any errors, they should be corrected.
