WHAT TO KNOW
Factors That Affect Stamp Duty
Stamp duty rates are set by the respective state government and can change from time to time. These are the common factors that influence the amount payable.
📍
State / Location
Stamp duty rates differ by state — Delhi, Haryana (Gurgaon/Faridabad) and Uttar Pradesh (Noida) each have their own applicable rates.
🚻
Owner's Gender
Several states offer a concessional stamp duty rate for properties registered solely in a woman's name.
🏢
Property Type
Residential, commercial and agricultural properties may attract different stamp duty and registration treatment.
💰
Circle Rate / Value
Stamp duty is generally calculated on the higher of the transaction value or the government circle rate/ready reckoner rate.
📜
Registration Charges
Registration charges are typically a separate, smaller percentage of property value, payable in addition to stamp duty.
🧮
Loan Budgeting
These charges are usually paid by the buyer directly and are generally not funded as part of the home loan amount — plan your own contribution accordingly.
