Help on Stamp Duty.

I am purchasing a house on tenancy basis in South Mumbai and I need to pay stamp duty on the tenancy agreement.

I have heard that on tenancy agreements the stamp duty is payable on area of the property taken on tenancy. I need to know the rate at which stamp duty is payable on the same.

Can anybody plz help me?

Thanks,

Moiz W.

the stamp duty will be 5% on 90% of the market value of the property after deducting the depreciation available which you may get upto 40%. e.g.

Stamp duty = Carpet Area (in Sq. Mtr.) x 1.2 x reckoner rate/sq. mtr. x 1.05 (if higher than 4th floor i.e. 5th floor and up) x 0.9 x (1-Deprciation/100) x 5%
