Step 1 — Expected Rent: higher of Municipal Value (₹1,00,000) and Fair Rent (₹1,10,000) = ₹1,10,000, restricted to Standard Rent ₹1,05,000 → Expected Rent = ₹1,05,000.

Step 2 — Gross Annual Value: let out throughout the year with no vacancy, and Actual Rent Received (₹1,20,000) exceeds Expected Rent (₹1,05,000), so GAV = ₹1,20,000.
