Stamp duty

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 31 October 2024 This query is : Resolved 
Trial court have ordered to Pay the Stamp Duty on a document. Can we pay the stamp duty after Judgment of the Case i.e. Regular Civil Suit ? Is there any case law ?
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 31 October 2024
If the stamp duty penalty is not paid during the pendency of the case, the court may dismiss the suit for the same reason, hence don't take risk

You have to pay the stamp duty during pendency of case else your document will not be admissible in evidence and considered.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 01 November 2024
If the documents you rely upon is found to be suffering from stamp duty penalty, the court may not accept the document as admissible evidence and would not permit you to even mark it is exhibit from your side.
If the documents you rely upon are not marked then you may even lose your case, hence better pay the stamp duty during the pendency of the case
