as per Sec33 of Indian Stamp Act,1899, you have to pay stamp duty on a legal instrument and we cannot and should not evade it specially to be on the safer side of law. The moment you pay stamp duty on a legal instrument, the same immediately gets legal sanctity and weightage in the eye of law and the court of law will treat it a primary evidence whenever a dispute arises between the two parties concerned. Suppose we don't pay sufficent stamp duty, we will be compelled by court to pay a hefty amount as stamp duty including 10 times penalty whenever the document is presented before any court.
