profit is deducted and the result is value of the property in its original state and is known as its
residual value.
Income Methods:
Rental Method / Rent Capitalization Technique: Net rental income is capitalized by a years
purchase. The security percent is market derived. When a property is valued by Rental Method,
value by Land and Building Method also is declared. When valued for Fair Rent, fair rent
formula can be applied to the value arrived by land and building method and that gross is the
ceiling.
(Supreme Court) It can not be laid down as a general rule applicable to all situations and
circumstances that a multiple approximately equal to the return from gilt-edged securities
prevailing at the relevant time forms an adequate basis for finding out the market value of land,
(State of Kerala Vs P.P.Hassan Koya-A.I.R. 1968 (Supreme Court) 1201.
Account or Profit Method: Commercial properties like Cinema Houses Hotels, Cold Storages,
etc. are valued in consideration of their potentialities to produce income. Gross income less
outgoings consisting of collection expenses, repairs, sinking fund to redeem capital assets, etc.,
are capitalized with market derived security percent or years purchase to determine the market
value. When a property is valued by Profit Method, value by Land and Building Method also is
declared.
Hypothetical Building Scheme: This method considered as the basis of market value
provides evidence of a remote speculative and conjectural character. (Case of Ragunath Das 11
CLJ 612).
Market value of the site is assessed by deducting the total cost of hypothetical structure
including interest for capital outlay for an average period of construction from the market rental
value of the scheme. Construction of building floor plate area hypothetically done respecting
local building rules.
Valuation of Building Estates: It is based on the principle as laid down in Government of
Bombay vs. Karim Tar Mohamed. I.L.R. 33 Bom. 325; The owner in claiming compensation can
seek to prove either what the property would fetch, if sold in one block, or what is the present
value if he plotted out the property and sold in lot.
Land must be valued at its best and most advantageous manner and if an estate is worth more,
if sold in plotted layout, it can be laid out. Normally it will take time. Present value of estimated
realization is deducted for adventurers share @ 20 percent; that amount is further deducted to
the present value of cost of road making, and other modern infrastructures cost, plus
engineering supervision charges, legal charges, advertisement and brokerage; the result is
value of estate.
Valuation of Building Estates
What is the present value of ABC estate which is now ripe for building development? The
estimated cost of engineering works complete is INR 1,20,00,000/-. The estimated gross return
from lands available for immediate sale is INR 6,00,00,000/-. 15 grounds of land worth INR
45,00,000 will not be sold immediately but reserved for commercial purpose.

In the authors opinion, in layouts, Roads area requires a minimum of 20 percent. Normally
under development control rules a minimum of 10 percent area is to be reserved for open space
reservation for land extent exceeding 10,000 sm or 1,07,643 sf or 1 hectare area for plotted
development.
The catena of decisions relating to the compensation in land acquisition case would mandate
that sales relating to small pieces of lands, if they are genuine and reliable and comparable to
the land acquired, the same could be relied on.
Under the land acquisition cases of Land Acquisition Act 1894, when comparable sales
instances of small pieces of land are relied upon to a vast strip of land, the deduction for
development charges allowed is from 33 to 53% percent as approved by the Madurai Bench of
Madras High Court in Thanjavur Air Field Case. A vast piece agricultural land was acquired for
Thanjavur Air Field. In assessing the market value small pieces of residential comparable sales
instances were relied upon. The award is:
1/3
Rs.
Rs.
One cent = 435.60 sf; the value of land acquired was Rs. 4 psf and the net value of award is:
Rs. 1.88 psf.
The Madurai Bench of Madras High Court has allowed 53% and the Supreme Court has
allowed 63% on the facts and in the circumstances of the case in K. Vasundara Devi vs. RDO,
LAO ((1005) 5 SCC 426)) towards deduction for development charges. Source: Source: ^

In LAO vs. Adhi Narayana Setty (AIR 1959 SC 429) mandated method of valuation:
1). Opinion of experts
2). The price paid within a reasonable time in bonafide transaction of purchase of the lands
acquired or the lands adjacent to the lands acquired and possessing similar advantages, and
3). A number of years purchase of the actual or immediately prospective profits of the land
acquired. (AIR 1959 SC 429).
Land value depends on its size, shape, location, abutting road width, and the land use to which
it is put to use and has to be valued with all its potentials and advantages. Based on Chennai
Building Rules as per the Second Master Plan 2026, building types, minimum land area
required and its potentials are furnished below for Chennai City, excluding continuous building
area.

The belt size in column 4 above is the size that can be called as 1 belt and value of land
depends on its potentials. The first belt is minimum requirements to qualify to that category of
building type. Any area in excess in the rear side, its value will be less than the first belt. The
value has to be decided according to its size, shape, access available and based on prevailing
evidences and circumstances.

Formula for compensation by Tamil Nadu Government vis-vis the same compensation by valuation by belting method
A piece of land admeasuring 40 x 6 feet was acquired for road widening by Tamil Nadu
Government in Chennai City in July 2012. The total land extent is 2,400 sf (40 feet
frontage and 60 feet plot depth). The potentiality of the land is a G +2 residential
building can be constructed to accommodate six dwelling units. FSI permissible is 1.5.
Market value of land is INR 8,000 psf and guideline value (GLV) is INR 6,000 psf.
TN Government formula for minimum compensation for the above category: 1 sf land
will be awarded 2.25 sf of built-up area and its worth in terms of land value 2.25 / 1.5 x
Guideline value. Compensation payable in land value terms: 2.25/1.5 x 6000 = INR
9,000 or 6 x 40 x 9,000 /6 = 3,60,000 per foot depth (pfd) and total compensation in
land value terms worth INR 21,60,000/=
Hypothetical Valuation by Belting Method:
Within 40 x 60 feet land, the first belt is 40 x 6 feet and the second belt is 40 x 54 feet.
Total land value is INR 19,20,00 (40 x 6 x 8,000) and pfd is INR 3,20,00 pfd i.e.
(19,29,000 / 6). The second belt is considered @ 3,20,000 x 0.875= INR 2,80,000 pfd
Valuation by belting method: (60 x 3,20,000) (54 x 2,80,000) / 6 = INR 6,80,000 pfd
and total compensation is INR 40,80,000/=
If 3/4 of the first belt is assumed pfd is INR 10,40,000 and compensation is INR
62,40,000/=. In such a situation value arrived by Government formula can be
considered as a benchmark, the nearest would be 0.975 and pfd value is INR 3,92,000
and compensation value is 23,52,000/=.
th
As per belting method of valuation, if we consider 40 x 60 is the first belt, the reasonable
second belt at the recess would be valued at 3/4 of the first belt and 3 belt at 2/3 of the
first belt. In Secretary of State for India in Council vs. Bhupati Nath Deb CLJ 90, it was
held that land in recess are generally priced at 3/4 value of similar plots in
corresponding belts. In Anantham Pillai vs, State of Kerala 1961 LJ 723, it was held
that such a method (Belting Method) can be restored to only in cases where extensive
lands having road only on one side is to be valued.

vis--vis
Valuation:
I. DRCA 1: Market Value of land in its existing use plus DRC
DRCA 2: Market Value of land in its HIGHEST AND BEST USE (HABU) plus DRC;
when valued by DRCA 2, if market value of land is greater than total value of DRCA 1,
the land value of DRCA 2 is the Valuation result.
II. In some cases, if a specialized property is purchased and put to different use (as
permissible by local authority), due to changing trend in the market, the market value is
higher of:
1). the value of land for alternative use minus cost of demolition complete, or
2). DRC for the same use plus cost of land in its existing use.
When a property is valued by multiple approaches of valuation (CSA & IA), that
valuation is to be cross checked with DRCA.
The IVS is not mandatory and it is guidance only. The sovereign State law if any, that
will be prevailing in decision regarding valuation procedures.
In the authors opinion, the value of HABU of land is to be arrived to its evidenced
potential value and not based on hypothetical conclusions like if the land use is changed
from one use to another, the value will be higher; in such a case evidence is essential
because to change from one land use to another, special permission is required in some
or may be all states of Indian Government.
