number of documents and a major source of revenue to earn for the government of

Chhattisgarh. Chhattisgarh stamp duty rates are one of the lowest stamp duties among nearby

states.

WHAT IS STAMP DUTY?

Stamp duty is an indirect tax kind levied by the government on all lawful property transactions.

As a result, stamp duty is a tax that serves as evidence of any acquisition or sale of real estate

between two or more parties. Stamp papers, which must be purchased in the name of either

the seller or the buyer, are valid if the stamp duty is paid promptly. While buying stamp paper

one has to tell the stamp vendor the party/parties to the transaction and the purpose of

transaction.

STAMP DUTY ACT

The provisions of Section 3 of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899, govern the payment of stamp duty.

In addition to providing validity to a document, stamp duty is collected to generate cash for

local governments. Chhattisgarh state earns around Rs 1025 crores from stamp duty during the

financial year ending 2021.

STAMP DUTY CHARGES

Because stamp duty is a state matter in India, stamp duty rates vary from state to state. The

central government, on the other hand, sets the stamp duty rates for individual instruments. As

previously stated, failure to pay stamp duty on time will result in a monthly penalty of 2%. (up

to 200 percent of the remaining amount).
