Stamp duty is a state government tax levied on property transactions. It legally validates the sale, purchase, or transfer of immovable property. Without paying stamp duty and registering your property, your sale transaction is not recognized by law.
It ensures your ownership rights are officially recorded and protected, reducing future disputes.
Stamp duty in Karnataka varies by type of area and property value:
For example, on a property worth ₹50 lakh in Bengaluru, stamp duty + cess works out to roughly ₹2.6–2.8 lakh.
Separate from stamp duty, these are fees for recording the transaction in the Sub-Registrar Office (SRO):
So for the same ₹50 lakh property, about ₹50,000 will be payable.
Registration is done at the SRO office under whose jurisdiction the property falls.
