What is Stamp Duty?
Stamp duty is the tax levied by the government when there is a transfer of property from a seller to a buyer. Which is generally calculated as a percentage of the transaction value. Stamp duty charges vary across states.
Property Registration and Transfer Charges
Buyers generally have to pay 1% of the deal value as a registration charge. Some states also levy a flat rate, based on the property worth. Unlike most states in India, in Telangana buyers have to pay only 0.5% of the property value, this way Hyderabad offers the most affordable property registration charge to buyers.
Apart from stamp duty and registration charges, all buyers are expected to pay 1.5% of the property value as a transfer fee during the time of registration.
