Stamp duty is a state government tax paid when registering a property sale deed. Rates vary from about 3% to 8% depending on state, and can differ based on buyer gender or joint ownership. Registration charges are separate - typically 1% of property value - paid to the sub-registrar for recording the transaction.

These charges are not recoverable when you sell, so they add directly to purchase cost. A property at Rs.80 lakhs with 5% stamp duty and 1% registration means Rs.4.8 lakhs extra at signing. Many buyers get caught short because they only planned for the down payment and EMI - budget for stamp duty separately from day one.
