FBR Valuation Table Jhelum 2026: Chattai Bazar, GT Road, Dina and Sohawa Rates per Sq Ft
FBR valuation table Jhelum 2026: Chattai Bazar, GT Road, Hill Views, Dina and Sohawa rates per sq ft, each row with its own building rate, and a worked example.
Jhelum's FBR valuation table is SRO 1695(I)/2024, in force since 1 November 2024, with no 2026 change on FBR's page. A shop plot in Chattai Bazar is Rs 30,250 a square foot and a house plot there is Rs 5,378. Unlike most tables, every Jhelum row carries its own building rate, from Rs 907 to Rs 3,300 a square foot.
FBR uses this fair market value to charge advance income tax on a property sale or purchase when it is higher than the deed price. The Jhelum table is long: 5,439 rows across the Jhelum, Dina and Sohawa tehsils. We worked through it on 12 November 2026 and pulled out the bazaars, the GT Road rows and the housing schemes in Dina.
Jhelum's FBR table has 5,439 rows, each with a land and a building rate
SRO 1695(I)/2024 was issued on 29 October 2024 under section 68(4) of the Income Tax Ordinance. It replaced SRO 1270(I)/2022 of 1 August 2022 and took effect on 1 November 2024.
Each row gives a tehsil, a property area, a classification (residential, commercial, agricultural or abadi deh), a location or mauza, an open plot value per square foot and a building rate per square foot. The table spells the tehsil "Jehlum". Values are printed with decimals, such as Rs 385.7, which we round on this page.
We opened FBR's Valuation of Immovable Properties page on 12 November 2026, clicked Jhelum in the district list and downloaded the PDF it links. The page names SRO 1695(I)/2024 of 29 October 2024 and its "Other Related SROs" box was empty, so no 2026 amendment is attached to Jhelum. We also searched FBR's Income Tax SRO list for every 2026 valuation notification, and none of the fourteen we found is for Jhelum. One thing slowed us down. Many rows in the Jhelum tehsil part only say "On Road" or "Off Road" in the area column, with no area name on the row. We left those rows out rather than guess which area they belong to.
Chattai Bazar, Ghalla Mandi and the GT Road lead Jhelum city's values

An FBR value is not approval of a scheme. Before you buy, check whether a housing society is approved in Punjab.
How to work out the FBR value of a Jhelum house or plot
Multiply the plot's square feet by your row's land rate, then add the covered area times the building rate printed on the same row. Tax is charged on the higher of this total and the deed price.
- Find your tehsil, area and mauza in the table.
- Pick the residential or commercial row, and the road position if it is split.
- Convert the plot to square feet. One Punjab marla is commonly taken as 272.25 square feet, but use the size on your registry.
- Multiply by the land rate.
- Add the covered area times the building rate on that row, then compare with the deed price.
Example: a 5 marla plot of 1,361 square feet in Hill Views with a 1,000 square foot house. The land is 1,361 times Rs 2,194.1, about Rs 2,986,170. The building is 1,000 times Rs 1,664, which is Rs 1,664,000. The total is about Rs 4,650,170, our arithmetic. Our reading is that the building rate applies to covered area; confirm it with the sub-registrar.
Under the Finance Act 2026 a filer buyer pays advance tax of 1.25% of the fair market value, which comes to about Rs 58,127 on that example. A seller pays the sale rate on the same value. Overseas Pakistanis can get the filer rate with a NICOP or POC. These rates come from our Finance Act 2026 explainer; we did not re-read the Act today.
What the Jhelum FBR table does not decide
The FBR value is for federal income tax only. Punjab's stamp duty and registration fee use the District Collector's rate, and the land record sits with the Punjab Land Records Authority.
Read about the DC valuation of property, the PLRA fard and mutation fees and the checks to run on a registry before you buy.
