that due to some unavoidable circumstances the registration of document could not be registered in April, 2011. The transferee requires the refund of stamp duty amount. What is the procedure in registration act for refund of stamp duty amount and how much time it will take. thanks

you are late. stamp duty can be claimed refund within 6 months. Now, you can't refund stamp duty. However, it can be use life long, if it was not use.

You move an application before collector of your area with specific reasons leading to delay praying for condonation of delay on that ground. It is possible to order your refund after deducting some penalty.

thanks, I can file an application before collector. There is a genuine reason for not filing an application for refund of stamp duty due to closure of all govt. offices in hyderabad for "Sakula Jana Samme" means general stike of people for 42 days since 13 sept.,
I thank one and all

Shri Makkad Sir
With due respect, can i know that how can the collector allow? when section 54 doesn't provide provision relating condonation of delay.
Thanks

WHEN SECTION 5 LIMITATION CAN BE EXTENDED TO APPLY TO CRIMINAL CASES THEN WHY SHOULD NOT IT APPLY IN THIS CASE?
