Stamp duty is a tax levied by state governments on legal documents, primarily property transactions. It serves as legal evidence that the document has been properly executed. Payment of stamp duty makes a document legally admissible in court. The rate varies by state, document type, and property value. It is governed by the Indian Stamp Act, 1899 (central) and respective state amendments.
Stamp Duty is the tax on the document itself, paid via e-stamping or franking. It varies significantly by state (2% to 8%).
Registration Fee is the charge for registering the document with the Sub-Registrar office under the Registration Act, 1908. It is typically 1-2% of the property value and is separate from stamp duty. Both must be paid for the transaction to be legally valid.
States like Delhi (2% vs 4%), Maharashtra (1% less), Rajasthan (1% less), and UP (1% less) offer concessions for female buyers.
