Monthly Rent = Area x Rate per sq. mt.

Annual rent = Monthly Rent x 12 months

Less 10% = less 10% on Annual Rent

Taxable amount = Annual Rent - less 10%

Annual house tax = Taxable Amount x 12%

For residential purpose

a) Rate for RCC Houses @ 14/- per sq. mtr.

Area — 100m²

Monthly Rent

= Rs. 100 x Rs. 14/-

Annual rent

= Rs. 1400 x 12 months

Less 10%

= Rs. 16800 x 10% on Annual Rent

Taxable amount

= Rs. 16800 - 1680

Annual house tax

= Rs. 15120 x 12%

= Rs. 1814/- Annual Tax

For commercial purpose

b) Rate for RCC houses @ 24/- per sq. mtr.

Monthly Rent

= Rs. 100 x Rs. 24/-

Annual rent

= Rs. 2400 x 12 months

Less 10%

= Rs. 28800 x 10% on Annual Rent

Taxable amount

= Rs. 28800 - 2880 = Rs. 25920

Annual house tax

= Rs. 25920 x 12%

= Rs. 3110/- Annual Tax

For residential purpose

Rate for Manglore Tiles @ 10/- per sq. mtr.

Area — 100m²

1. Monthly rent

= Rs. 100 x Rs. 10/-

2. Annual rent

= Rs. 1000 x 12 months

3. Less 10%

= Rs. 12000 x 10% on Annual Rent

OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA

5. Annual house tax

= Rs. 10800 x 12%

= Rs. 1296/- Annual Tax

For commercial purpose

b) Rate for Manglore Tiles @ Rs. 12/- per sq. mtr.

1. Monthly rent

= Rs. 100 x Rs. 12/-

2. Annual rent

= Rs. 1200 x 12 months

3. Less 10%

= Rs. 14400 x 10% on Annual Rent

4. Taxable amount

= Rs. 14400 - 1440
