EASR / e-ASR rates Pune 2026: ready reckoner ASR rate lookup, how e-ASR sets stamp duty, circle rates by zone and village, and why reckoner rate differs from market price.
EASR / e-ASR rates Pune - what they are
EASR (also written esar) stands for e-ASR - the Electronic Annual Statement of Rates, Maharashtra's official ready reckoner rate published by the Inspector General of Registration (IGR). It is the government's minimum benchmark for stamp duty and registration, revised annually (usually April 1).
For FY 2026-27, the Pune ASR is unchanged (0% revision) after last year's ~3.9% rise. Every zone, village and construction rate continues at its 2025-26 level until the next statement.

EASR rate and stamp duty
Stamp duty is calculated on the higher of the agreement value or the ready reckoner value. Even if you negotiate a below-market price, duty applies to the reckoner value. This is why checking the EASR rate before negotiating matters - it sets your duty floor.
The reckoner rate is uniform by zone and reviewed annually. Market value is what buyer and seller actually agree - often above the reckoner in fast-appreciating pockets, as the reckoner lags the market by design.
EASR vs market rate vs construction cost
- EASR / reckoner rate: Government minimum for stamp duty. Zone-based, annual revision.
- Market rate: Actual buyer-seller agreement price. Can be above or below reckoner.
- Construction cost: What builders charge to build - ₹2,400-2,900/sqft standard in Pune 2026. Different from reckoner entirely.
EASR / e-ASR rates: your questions answered.
What is the e-ASR rate in Pune?
+
e-ASR (Electronic Annual Statement of Rates) is Maharashtra's ready reckoner rate published by IGR. For Pune, the FY 2026-27 ASR is unchanged (0% revision) after last year's ~3.9% rise. Rates vary by zone, village and property type - check the official e-ASR portal for your exact area.
How do I check e-ASR / ready reckoner rate online?
+
Use the official IGR e-ASR portal (igreval.maharashtra.gov.in/eASR2.0). Select district, taluka, village and zone. The result shows land rate per unit and construction rate per square metre for your specific area.
Is stamp duty on reckoner value or agreement value?
+
Whichever is HIGHER. Stamp duty and registration apply to the greater of the agreement value and the ready reckoner (market) value. A bargain price below the reckoner value still pays duty on the reckoner value.
Are easr and esar the same thing?
+
Yes - easr / esar both refer to e-ASR (Electronic Annual Statement of Rates), Maharashtra's ready reckoner rate system. Different spellings of the same IGR rate.
Does the ready reckoner rate affect construction cost?
+
Indirectly. The ASR publishes a construction rate per square metre by zone for valuing under-construction structures for duty purposes. It is a valuation benchmark, not a builder's quote - actual construction cost in Pune runs ₹2,400-2,900/sqft standard.
