Purchasing land in both urban and rural areas of Amroha will become more expensive starting Monday, following the approval of revised circle rates by District Magistrate Nidhi Gupta Vats. The new rates come after resolving public objections and offering partial relief to residents.

The Registration Department has instructed sub-registrar offices across all four tehsils to implement the updated stamp duty rates and warned against any negligence in enforcement. Agricultural land prices have increased by 10-15 per cent, while residential land rates have risen by 20-25 per cent.

Circle rates, which are determined annually based on factors such as residential colonies, industrial development, location, and road width, have been revised continuously over the past two years. Last August, the department proposed a 20-25 per cent hike in rural areas and 25-30 per cent in urban areas, inviting public objections until September 29. Only ten objections were received, five from Amroha Sadar Tehsil, three from Hasanpur, and one each from Naugawan Sadat and Mandi Dhanaura.

After hearing public concerns, ADM Finance and Revenue Garima Singh addressed the objections, and the DM approved a partially revised list, providing some relief to land buyers.

The new circle rates for key areas are as follows (per square meter):
