# Stamp Duty & Registration Charges

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.

## How to calculate and pay Tamil Nadu stamp duty

Procedure to estimate, pay, and file stamp duty for a Tamil Nadu property registration via TNREGINET.

1. 1  
### Confirm the applicable market value  
Look up the live guideline value and confirm the applicable market value accepted for registration under TNREGINET's valuation rules before calculating duties and fees.
2. 2  
### Use the TNREGINET stamp-duty calculator  
Visit https://tnreginet.gov.in/portal/ and use the stamp-duty calculator. For a standard Conveyance (Sale), budget 5% stamp duty + 2% transfer duty + 2% registration fee = 9% of the applicable market value under TNREGINET's valuation rules. The portal currently displays the first two components together as 7% under “Stamp Duty.”  
[Open portal](https://tnreginet.gov.in/portal/)
3. 3  
### Check for women-buyer concessions  
Tamil Nadu has announced concessional registration rates for women buyers under specific value thresholds. Confirm current applicability and exact percentages on the TNREGINET portal before relying on a discounted rate.
4. 4  
### Pay via e-Stamping or DD  
Stamp duty can be paid via e-Stamping (online) or Demand Draft. Generate the e-Stamp certificate from the TNREGINET portal.
5. 5  
### Register at the Sub-Registrar Office  
Schedule registration at the relevant SRO with the Sale Deed, e-Stamp certificate, identity proofs, photographs, and witnesses. Registration is mandatory within 4 months of execution.

## Red flags to catch before signing

These are the patterns that break deals if missed.

- The draft uses a value the SRO does not accept under TNREGINET's valuation rules — confirm the applicable market value before paying duties and fees.
- Property is registered at a value much below market rate to evade stamp duty — Income Tax Department may treat the difference as deemed gift, triggering tax.
- Stamp duty paid but registration is delayed beyond 4 months — stamp paper can become invalid or attract penalty.
- Sale Deed clauses include hidden consideration (cash component) — registration based on partial value is illegal and creates future title risk.
- Buyer is relying on a women-buyer concession without confirming current TNREGINET rates and value thresholds — concessions change with state budgets; verify before assuming the lower rate.

## When manual stops scaling

A single stamp-duty calculation is one form-fill. Acquisition teams modeling deal economics across 20+ active leads — comparing guideline vs market, factoring women-buyer concessions, modelling impact of guideline-rate hikes — repeat the calculation manually for every revised offer. Proquiro models stamp-duty cost in deal-feasibility calculations automatically and refreshes when guideline values change.

Common Questions

## Stamp Duty & Registration Charges  
FAQ

What is the current stamp duty in Tamil Nadu?

A standard Conveyance (Sale) attracts 9% total on the applicable market value under TNREGINET's valuation rules — 5% stamp duty + 2% transfer duty + 2% registration fee.

TNREGINET currently groups the 5% stamp-duty and 2% transfer-duty components together as 7% under “Stamp Duty.”

Do women get a stamp duty concession in Tamil Nadu?

Tamil Nadu has announced concessional registration rates for women buyers under specific value thresholds. The standard stamp-duty component is 5%; confirm which fee component the current concession changes before calculating the total.

Because rate schedules change with state budgets, confirm current concession percentages and value caps directly on the TNREGINET portal before relying on a discounted figure.

Is stamp duty calculated on the sale agreement value or guideline value?

TNREGINET applies duties and the registration fee to the applicable market value accepted for registration under its valuation rules. The official guideline value is one input to that valuation process.

Confirm the live guideline value and the value accepted for the draft instrument with TNREGINET or the jurisdictional SRO before paying.

How do I pay Tamil Nadu stamp duty online?

Use the TNREGINET portal's e-Stamping flow. Calculate the duty using the built-in stamp-duty calculator, generate an e-Stamp certificate, and pay via net banking, UPI, or DD.

The e-Stamp certificate must be presented at the Sub-Registrar Office during registration.
