Frequently Asked Questions

What is stamp duty and why do I have to pay it?
Stamp duty is a state government tax on property transactions, paid to legally register the transfer of ownership. Without paying it, the sale deed isn't legally valid.
Do stamp duty rates differ for men and women?
In many Indian states, yes — women often get a 1-2% concession on stamp duty when the property is registered solely, or jointly with them as the first owner. This calculator uses a single representative rate per state; check your local rate for your specific situation.
Is stamp duty included in my home loan?
Usually not. Most lenders finance the property price but expect stamp duty and registration charges to be paid upfront out of pocket, so it's worth budgeting for separately from your down payment.
