The Punjab government sets a minimum property price, known as the district collector (DC) rate, based on factors like location. This rate is used to calculate taxes and duties on real estate transactions and property assessments.

The DC rate is determined by the district collector or a similar authority to ensure property transfers are properly documented and taxes are accurately collected. It also helps prevent tax evasion and underreporting of property values.

You can find the DC rate list for major cities like Lahore and Multan on the local government’s official website. You can also get this information from the District Collect orate, which keeps records of DC rates and can provide them on request.

To check property valuations online, you can visit the Punjab government’s e-Stamping website. You’ll need to enter details like land type, location, classification, and area size to find the land rate.
