⚠️ GST on New Flats from Builders: If you are buying a new flat from a builder, GST is charged separately by the builder — 5% for completed/ready-to-move flats and 18% for under-construction flats (on 2/3rd of total value). This is in addition to stamp duty and registration fee and is paid to the builder, not the SRO.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is stamp duty on a flat different from a plot in Tamil Nadu?
The rate (7%) is the same but the calculation base differs. For a plot, stamp duty is on the guideline value per sq ft × area. For a flat, it is on the composite value — UDS land value plus building construction value. The composite guideline value is available on TNREGINET.

What is a Release Deed and when is stamp duty needed?
A release deed is when one co-owner releases their share to another co-owner. For family members, stamp duty is 1% (capped at ₹25,000). For non-family co-owners, the rate is 7%. This is commonly used when one sibling wants to give up their inherited share of a property.

Does the bank pay stamp duty on a mortgage deed?
Technically the borrower pays stamp duty on the Simple Mortgage Deed, but banks typically deduct it from the loan disbursement. The 1% stamp duty on mortgage deeds is capped at ₹40,000 regardless of loan size — so a ₹1 crore home loan still attracts only ₹40,000 in stamp duty.
