What was argued and what the tribunal found

The appellant argued the rateable value of £266.75/m² was excessive and proposed £160.50/m² based on comparable properties, and sought an effective date of 21 January 2020. The tribunal found the actual lease rent of £20,000 per annum agreed in October 2015 (the antecedent valuation date) provided strong evidence supporting the assessment, and the comparable properties cited were not truly comparable due to differences in location, floor position, and size. The tribunal dismissed the appeal, confirming the RV of £20,000 with effect from 1 April 2017.
