To demonstrate the inflation in land valuation, let’s look at a hypothetical comparison of prime locations.
| City | Area Type | Jantri 2001 (per sq. mtr) | Jantri 2023 (per sq. mtr) | Increase | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Ahmedabad | Prahlad Nagar (Main Road) | ₹ 1,500 | ₹ 25,000 | 1566% | | Surat | Vesu (Main Road) | ₹ 900 | ₹ 18,000 | 1900% | | Vadodara | Alkapuri | ₹ 2,000 | ₹ 32,000 | 1500% | | Rajkot | Kalavad Road | ₹ 800 | ₹ 12,000 | 1400% | | Rural | Non-agricultural land | ₹ 100 | ₹ 2,500 | 2400% |
