"As the third wave of Covid is approaching, it is the duty of our government to take all steps to further reduce the financial burden on the common man," Revenue Minister Kailash Gahlot told IANS.

"This decision is expected to make it substantially cheaper for people to do property transactions and help revive the real estate sector," he said.

To boost the slumped economy after the devastating first wave of the pandemic, the Delhi government had earlier reduced the prevalent circle rates by 20 percentage points with effect from April 1, 2021 till September 30, 2021.
