Stamp duty and registration charges for gift deed in u.p.

I am holding a property in Kanpur (Uttar Pradesh) in which me and my brother has 50% - 50% partnership.

My Brother wants to gift his share to me.

I want to know that:

1) What would be the Stamp Duty on the Gift Deed and the Registration Charges.

2) As 50% property already belongs to me and my brother would be gifting his part (i.e. remaining 50% of the total property that belongs to him), So, would the stamp duty be applicable on 50% value of the total property value or on the 100% value of property.

Some of the States in India reduced the stamp duty in respect of Gift deeds executed in favour of blood relation i.e father, mother, wife, husband, brother and sister. The stamp duties vary from one State to another State. I think it is 2% of the value of the party or Market Value (government value) whichever is higher.

Stamp duty for gift deeds is differ state to state. Whatever , it is applicable it will be given only on your brother's share owned by him and not applicable to your share. You may check up from concerned Sub Registrar Office which belongs your Village/Taluka of your land which fall under their jurisdiction..
