The Defence Housing Authority (DHA) areas also saw significant rates, with DHA Phase I to VII set at Rs. 8,200 per square foot, DHA Phase VII Extension at Rs. 5,000, and DHA Phase VIII at Rs. 7,300.

This decision follows a broader initiative by the FBR to increase property valuation rates by 75% of actual market prices across 56 cities, aimed at enhancing revenue collection and addressing the issue of property undervaluation.

The updated rates will encompass categories for commercial, industrial, and residential properties, with a detailed notification expected to be released soon after approval from the FBR chairman.
