Step 10 of 35 · stage 1, checks before you pay
Check the jantri rate
Fixes the government valuation floor on which stamp duty is charged. Stamp duty on non-agricultural land is charged on market value regardless of what the parties write as consideration, so this determines the real transaction cost.

Where you go, and how
Garvi portal, Inspector General of Registration and Superintendent of Stamps, Government of Gujarat. If the jantri rate for a revenue survey number is not shown, the source directs the citizen to the office of the Deputy Collector, Stamp Duty Valuation Organisation in his district.
Mode: Online
This office handles 10 of the 35 steps in the register. What else it does, and what it charges.
What to have with you
The source names one thing to have with you.
- Property location (district, taluka, village, survey / final plot number)
Quoted from the prerequisite list in the register. Where the source names a detail rather than a document, such as a survey number, it is listed as the source words it.
The form you fill in
Garvi menu items 'Jantry rate' (ViewJantri_New.aspx) and 'Market value'
What it costs
No fee published. This is one of the 18 steps of 35 where no government source we read publishes an amount, so nobody can tell you the figure in advance from an official page.
Here is exactly what was searched, quoted from the register's own limitations list:
No fee is stated for this step in any source examined for this register. The absence is recorded as an empty value rather than filled with a number from somewhere else.
How long it takes
No timing stated. A department that does not publish a service standard cannot be held to one, which is worth knowing before you plan around a date.
No timeline is stated for this step in any source examined for this register. Where a statute prescribes a period it is recorded; where it does not, the value is left empty rather than filled with a turnaround time from an unofficial source.
What to watch out for
The register keeps a note against this step. It is the part most people find out too late, so it is printed in full rather than summarised.
For a promulgated (re-surveyed) village, the FAQ states that stamp duty is computed on the jantri rate of the survey number as it stood in the year the jantri was framed, not the new survey number. NO JANTRI REVISION DATE IS ASSERTED HERE: the local artifact jantri_gr.pdf embeds its dates in a legacy non-Unicode Gujarati font that does not extract reliably, so the effective date of the current jantri is deliberately left out of this dataset.
The law behind it
Gujarat Stamp Act, 1958 read with the Rules for market value calculation, 1984 (published on garvi.gujarat.gov.in as 'Rules for market value calculation-1984')
