What is it

Stamp duty in India is a state-level tax paid on property transactions, charged as a percentage of the property's market or agreement value, whichever is higher. Rates and any gender-based concessions are set independently by each state.

How it works

Most states apply a flat percentage to the property value, plus a separate registration fee. A handful of states, including Karnataka, use a tiered (slab) structure instead of a single flat rate.

Calculation methodology

This calculator applies the selected state's current stamp duty rate (flat or slab-based) plus any applicable registration fee or transfer duty surcharge to the property value you enter.

Exemptions & reliefs

Several states, including Maharashtra and Delhi, offer a concessional rate for female buyers as an incentive for women's property ownership.

Recent rule changes

Rates shown reflect each state's schedule effective from April 2024.

Glossary
