HCM CITY — HCM City’s land adjustment coefficient (the K coefficient) will be up to  三 五 times the official prices this year.

Under current regulations, the official land prices are fixed every five years by the city government, and so the K coefficients, revised every year, are imperative to keep up with market prices.

The municipal People’s Co妹妹ittee uses the K coefficient for, among other things, calculating the compensation to be paid to people whose lands are taken over for public projects.

With effect from August  二 五 the coefficient for residential land will be two to  一 五 times the official price depending on location. The areas with the highest coefficient include Nhà Bè, Cần Giờ, Hóc Môn and Củ Chi districts and Thủ Đức City.

This means households whose lands are taken over by authorities will receive compensation of up to  一 五 times the official rate per square metre.

The coefficient for agricultural lands is five to  三 五, with districts  一,  三,  四,  五,  六,  一0, and  一 一 having among the highest rates.

When people want to acquire land-use rights or change the purpose of land use, they also have to pay fees based on the coefficient.

Since the market prices of land are significantly higher than the official rates, the coefficients are indispensable, experts said.

Compensation and site clearance for public projects remain a major issue in HCM City, with many key ones delayed for years as a result. — VNS
