Stamp duty in Tamil Nadu is the state tax payable on property transfer documents (Sale Deed, Gift, Mortgage, etc.) to make them legally enforceable. For a standard Conveyance (Sale), the official Tamil Nadu Budget Speech sets out 5% stamp duty + 2% transfer duty + 2% registration fee — total 9% on the applicable market value under TNREGINET's valuation rules. TNREGINET currently groups the first two components as 7% under “Stamp Duty.” Duties and the registration fee are calculated and paid before registration at the Sub-Registrar Office.
