Mumtaz City — Three Sources, Three Different Districts
Ask three sources which district Mumtaz City sits in and you get three different answers. None of them is wrong; they are using different definitions of the same land.
Ask Zameen which district Mumtaz City is in and it says Islamabad. Ask RDA or FBR and both say Rawalpindi. Ask OpenStreetMap and it says Tehsil Fateh Jang, District Attock. All three are real, dated sources, and none of them agrees. This is not a trick question with one right answer; it is what happens on the administrative edge of three jurisdictions, and it is worth knowing before you ask which land office actually processes your mutation.
What the record actually says
| Fact | What the source says |
|---|---|
| RDA register — approved list | “Mumtaz City” · Pind Nasrala Gharbal · “approved over 3,328.79 kanal whereas town planning of extension is approved on 1,502.58 kanal (transfer & mortgage deed of extension is in process).” Record updated 3 Feb 2026. |
| CDA register | Absent from both of CDA's lists, checked 3 Sep 2026 — expected, RDA jurisdiction, not a finding. |
| The three-district conflict | Zameen files the scheme under Islamabad. RDA and FBR both file it under Rawalpindi. OpenStreetMap places it in “H-19, Tehsil Fateh Jang, District Attock”. Three attributions, printed as found. |
| A neighbouring, unrelated scheme | “The Avenue Housing Scheme, Mouza Pind Nasrala, Kashmir Highway (Mumtaz City Road)” sits on RDA's illegal list — same road, a different registered scheme, a different legal status. Do not let the shared road name blur the two. |
An enforcement action on the same road, not necessarily on this scheme. The Nation, 16 Jul 2026: an RDA enforcement squad sealed 8 illegally constructed residential buildings, 2 commercial buildings and the J7 Icon multi-storey building across “The Avenue-1 and Mumtaz City” for violating approved building plans, under the Punjab Development of Cities Act 1976 and RDA's Building and Zoning Regulations. The report does not separate which building was in which scheme — we say so rather than assign blame to either.
What FBR values it at — the number that decides your tax
Advance tax under §236K and §236C is computed on FBR’s notified value, not on what you pay. Almost nobody publishes these per area, so here they are, with the notification they come from.
| Category | Notified value |
|---|---|
| Pind Nasrala — commercial, on road | Rs 24,225.4/sq ft · super-structure Rs 2,250/sq ft |
| Pind Nasrala — residential, off road | Rs 3,821.5/sq ft · super-structure Rs 1,110/sq ft |
| Pind Nasrala, off-road variant — residential | Rs 3,482.3/sq ft · super-structure Rs 1,000/sq ft |
| Pind Nasrala, on-road variant — commercial | Rs 22,755.8/sq ft · super-structure Rs 2,110/sq ft |
From S.R.O. 1728(I)/2024, the Rawalpindi table. Two near-duplicate residential and commercial rows exist for the same mauza; we print both rather than pick one. Work your own number on the plot cost calculator.
Asking prices — what is listed, and what that is worth knowing
| Size | Asking range | Source, and what it is |
|---|---|---|
| Headline average, Jul 2026 | Rs 3.25 Cr | Zameen index (id 3464, filed under Islamabad), fetched 3 Sep 2026 — a big-plot-weighted figure, +7% 1yr, +25% 2yr, +409% since Jun 2014. |
| 5 Marla | Rs 76.23 Lac | +14% year on year. |
| 10 Marla | Rs 1.23 Cr | +12% year on year. |
| 1 Kanal | Rs 2.6 Cr | +32% year on year — the fastest-moving size band. |
| Chanab block | Rs 1.62 Cr | Block-level figure. |
| Executive Enclave block | Rs 3.18 Cr | +68% year on year — far ahead of the scheme average. |
| Ravi block | Rs 1.08 Cr | Block-level figure, below the scheme average. |
228 live listings at fetch time: 180 Residential, 48 Commercial. No plot-file category at all — Zameen's Plot Files page for Mumtaz City returns a 404. Unlike the file-heavy corridor around it, this reads as a possession market, not a paper market.
The honest part
- Three different jurisdictions named for one scheme is not academic. Ask which land revenue office (Rawalpindi, Attock or elsewhere) actually processes mutation for your specific block before you assume the answer.
- 1,502.58 Kanal of the approved extension has its transfer-and-mortgage deed still “in process” on RDA's own register. If your plot sits in that extension, ask directly whether that step has completed.
- An RDA enforcement action in July 2026 named Mumtaz City alongside an adjoining scheme without separating which buildings belonged to which. It is a live signal that enforcement is active in the immediate area, even without a building-by-building answer.
- “Mumtaz City Road” is not the same thing as Mumtaz City. The Avenue Housing Scheme sits on the same road and is, separately, on RDA's illegal list.
What to ask before you pay
- “Which district does the land revenue record show for mutation — Rawalpindi or Attock?” Get the tehsil and patwar circle in writing.
- “Is this block inside the original 3,328.79 Kanal, or the 1,502.58-Kanal extension?” And if the extension, has the transfer-and-mortgage deed completed?
- “Is this plot on Mumtaz City Road but inside The Avenue Housing Scheme?” The road name alone does not answer it.
- “Was any building on this block affected by the July 2026 sealing action?”
Against Bahria Enclave, plainly
Mumtaz City's possession-heavy, file-free resale market (228 listings, no plot-file category) is a genuinely different product from the file-driven corridor around it, and closer in character to a built-out CDA sector than to a pre-launch scheme. Bahria Enclave's governance story is more legible — one authority, one register, published notices — against Mumtaz City's three-jurisdiction ambiguity.
If what you want is a plot you can build on now inside this price band, Mumtaz City's possession depth is a real advantage. Confirm the jurisdiction question first; it decides which office you deal with for the next thirty years, not just for the transfer.
The rest of the city, read the same way
Same four things on every one: CDA’s register badge, the notices attached to it, FBR’s notified value, and dated asking prices.
- DHA Islamabad-Rawalpindi
- Naval Anchorage Islamabad
- Zaraj Housing Scheme
- B-17 Multi Gardens
- G-13, G-14 and G-15
- Gulberg Greens & Residencia
- Bani Gala
- Lehtrar Road & Simly Dam Road
- Chak Shahzad
- Bahria Town Rawalpindi
- Park View City Islamabad
- F-15 and E-16
- Faisal Town & Faisal Hills
- Top City-1
- Capital Smart City
- DHA Phase 9 / Gandhara Islamabad
- Blue World City
- Eighteen Islamabad
- Fazaia Housing Scheme, Tarnol
And the story that runs through all of them: CDA’s 2025–26 enforcement wave.
Plots available in every Bahria Enclave sector — and we buy as well as sell
From Sector A’s finished streets to Sector O’s entry tickets — 5 Marla to 4 Kanal, file to allotment to possession — we keep live options in all sixteen sectors, plus DHA Margalla Enclave ballots, files and resales. Buying, selling, or exchanging: one WhatsApp message gets you today’s real options, with verification built in before any token moves.
Mumtaz City, on the record
Depending which source you ask, both — or neither. Zameen files the scheme under Islamabad. RDA's own register and FBR's valuation table both file it under Rawalpindi District. OpenStreetMap's place record puts it in 'H-19, Tehsil Fateh Jang, District Attock'. We print all three because each is a real, dated source, and we have not found a single document that settles the question — ask which land revenue office actually handles your specific block's mutation.
Yes, per RDA's own register, read 3 September 2026: approved over 3,328.79 Kanal, with a further 1,502.58 Kanal extension whose town planning is approved but whose transfer-and-mortgage deed is still 'in process'. It does not appear on CDA's register, which is expected — CDA does not govern RDA-jurisdiction schemes.
An RDA enforcement squad sealed 8 illegally constructed residential buildings, 2 commercial buildings and the multi-storey J7 Icon building for violating approved building plans, across what The Nation's report describes as 'The Avenue-1 and Mumtaz City' together. The report does not specify which buildings were in which scheme, so we are not attributing them to one or the other.
Zameen's dedicated Plot Files page for Mumtaz City returns a 404, and its live listings (228 at last count) split only into Residential and Commercial. That points to a possession-driven resale market rather than a pre-launch file market — a meaningful difference from several other schemes on this corridor.
Zameen ke mutabiq location Islamabad hai, lekin RDA aur FBR isay Rawalpindi mein register karte hain, aur OpenStreetMap Attock batata hai — pehle apne block ke liye sahi patwar circle aur tehsil confirm kar lein. RDA ke record mein scheme approved hai (3,328.79 kanal), magar extension wale 1,502.58 kanal ka transfer abhi 'in process' hai — agar aap ka plot extension mein hai to yehi sawal seller se poochein.
