A list of unit area values assigned to each locality and colony is provided on the MCD property tax website. In case, one cannot find their colony name in the list, the MCD reserves the right to decide upon the unit area value of the locality as per the pre-determined guidelines in this regard, until any final settlement regarding the individual colony unit area value, the unit area value of the highest neighboring residential colony is taken into account for computing MCD property tax for the year.
