Frequently asked questions

Stamp duty is a state government tax on property transactions, paid to legally register the sale in your name. Without paying it and getting the sale deed registered, your ownership is not legally recognized, even if you have paid the seller in full.

Stamp duty is a state subject in India, so each state sets its own rate and revises it independently through its own notifications. This is why the same property value can attract very different stamp duty depending on which state it is in.

Use whichever is higher: the actual agreement value you are paying, or the government-notified guideline value (also called circle rate or ready reckoner rate) for that area. Stamp duty is calculated on the higher of the two, even if you negotiated a lower purchase price.

Several states offer a 1-2% stamp duty rebate when the property is registered solely in a woman's name, as a policy measure to encourage property ownership among women. Not all states offer this, and the rebate amount varies where it exists.

Yes, registration fee is a separate charge, usually around 1% of property value, paid to the sub-registrar office to record the transaction in official land records. Some states cap this fee at a flat amount instead of letting it scale uncapped with a high property value.

These are representative estimates based on published state rates, meant for planning purposes. States revise stamp duty and registration rates by individual notification, so rates can change without much notice. Always confirm the current rate with your local sub-registrar office before a transaction.
