## How this is calculated

Estimates stamp duty and registration charges for a property purchase from a per-state, per-buyer-category lookup table, applying a flat registration fee cap where the state has one (e.g. Maharashtra).

**Formula:** `stampDuty = propertyValue x stampDutyRatePercent(state, buyerCategory) / 100; registrationFee = min(propertyValue x registrationRatePercent(state) / 100, cap); totalCost = stampDuty + registrationFee`

**Variables:**

- `propertyValue`: Market value or agreement value, whichever is higher, in INR
- `state`: One of 10 major states in the lookup table, or a fallback default rate otherwise
- `buyerCategory`: 'individual', 'woman', or 'joint'; several states offer a rebate for a sole woman buyer

Reference: Cross-checked against published state-wise stamp duty guides (Housing.com, NoBroker, ClearTax).

## Assumptions

- Rates are representative estimates for 10 major property markets, cross-checked against published state stamp duty tables, with a default fallback rate for any other state or UT. They change by individual state notification and are flagged in the codebase for periodic manual re-verification.
- Uses property value directly; it does not model additional charges like GST on under-construction property, legal fees, or brokerage.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why is Maharashtra registration fee capped at 30,000?

Maharashtra caps the 1% registration fee at a flat Rs 30,000 for properties above Rs 30 lakh, so the fee stops scaling with property value beyond that point, unlike stamp duty which keeps growing proportionally.
