Stamp duty and registration are government charges connected with recording a property instrument. The amount depends on the instrument, transaction value or applicable market value, property type, location and current Maharashtra rules.
What a Pune buyer should verify
Ask for a written calculation showing the agreement value, applicable market or ready-reckoner value, stamp duty, registration fee, any surcharge or concession and the payment process. Do not assume that a rate from another city, year or property category applies to your Pune purchase.
Before registration
- Confirm the buyer and seller names are correct.
- Match the flat number, building, phase, carpet area and parking details.
- Check PAN, identity, authority and lender documentation.
- Confirm that the instrument is properly stamped and registrable.
- Keep payment receipts and the registered document safely.
Use the Maharashtra Registration and Stamps Department for current processes and rates. A property lawyer or registration professional should verify the exact amount for your transaction.
Registration charges are separate from GST, legal fees, brokerage, loan costs, maintenance deposits and interior expenses.
