Stamp duty is one of the largest hidden costs in property transactions — often 5-8% of the agreement value on top of the purchase price. Rates vary significantly by state, city type (urban vs rural), property type, and buyer gender. In Maharashtra, a Rs 80 lakh flat attracts different stamp duty in Pune versus Mumbai. This calculator provides current state-wise rates including women buyer concessions so you can budget total acquisition cost accurately before closing a deal.
Stamp duty is calculated as a percentage of the property's agreement value or ready reckoner value (circle rate), whichever is higher. The tool applies the correct rate for your selected state, city type, property category, and buyer gender. Women's concession rates (typically 1-2% lower) are built in for states that offer them, including Delhi, UP, Rajasthan, and Himachal Pradesh.
Registration charges — a separate fee paid to register the document at the Sub-Registrar's office — are calculated independently and added to the total. Many states cap registration at a fixed amount (Maharashtra caps at Rs 30,000 per document). The result shows the total government fees you must pay at the time of registration.
The total acquisition cost displayed is agreement value + stamp duty + registration charges, which is the actual cash outflow for taking legal ownership of the property.

Scope note: Stamp duty rates are based on the most recent state notifications available. Some states announce temporary waivers or concessions (Maharashtra COVID waiver, etc.) that may not be immediately reflected. Urban/rural classification at the sub-district level may differ from the broad state rule. Always verify the applicable rate with the state's stamp duty department or a registered property lawyer before executing a sale agreement.
