What is Stamp Duty?
Stamp duty is a tax you pay to the government when you register a property document, such as a sale deed. Registration charges are a separate fee for recording the document with the Registration Department. In Tamil Nadu, for a sale deed, stamp duty is 7% of the property value and registration charges are 4%. Both are calculated on the higher of the sale price or the guideline value of the property.
These charges are paid at the Sub-Registrar Office (SRO) at the time of registration. Knowing the amount in advance helps you arrange funds and avoid last-minute surprises on registration day.
