1) stamp duty is state subject and varies from state to state

2) stamp duty would be on the market value of your 50 per cent share in property

3) it would not be on the purchase price mentioned in sale deed

Hello,

Instead of giving it as a gift to your other, I would advise you to make a relinquishment deed and relinquish your share on her name.

The stamp duty in a gift will be same as that of the same proceed and you may check the same with a local lawyer.

Stamp duty will be given as per the market value.

Hi, the gift deed do not constitute any stamp fee as compared to sale deed and is very minimal .. In UP it is around 1 percent of circle rate

6% of the circle rate.

6% will have to be paid on your share in this property, i.e., half of this property.

The relinquish deed cannot be made in your case for mother as for relinquish deed it has to be in favour of co sharer of property so if you transfer in name of father than only relinquish deed otherwise it has to be gift deed.

Sir from my best of knowledge this is prevailing rate in UP for gift deed.

that is not true for Uttar Pradesh.

In Uttar Pradesh it is somewhere between 5-7%, only in some states it is 2% but not in UP

In that case you may go ahead with the gift deed

In UP, the stamp duty on gift is same as that on sale.

Thus, since you are gifting this share to a female, the stamp duty which is attracted is 6%. In case of a male, this were to be 7%.

Dear Client,

Stamp Duty will count on DLC rate ( govt rate ) . on 50% of your holding.

Relinquishment deed is possible in joint owner name and not in mother who has no ownership in the property.

6% stamp duty. Registration fee is 1% of the total value+Rs.100/- pasting charges.

Check if, any rebate provided by govt. while gifting in blood relation as most states provide.

Stamp duty charged is as per the government market value, prevailing in that particular area, which you can find out by filling a simple application / form in the concerned registration office. Since your share is 50%, the property transferred is being 50%, stamp duty levied is 50% of the registration amount to transfer your share of the flat in your mother's name. It will be particularly low in case of gift deeds.

Please mention in the gift deed clearly that your share is 50% in the flat and the said share is being gifted to your mother.

Stamp duty and registration fee has to be paid to register a gift deed. In some states, stamp duty rates for property transfer by way of gift is the same as for sale or conveyance deed.

In your case relinquishment Deed cannot be made in favour of mother as it can be executed only in favour of co sharer. Please contact local lawyer for stamp.duty applicable to your state.

Dear Sir,

You need not break your head with above questions. Just have a faith in advocate and ask him to draft relinquish deed and get it registered in respect of your portion in favour of your mother. Or get registered a gift deed in favour of your mother. Official receipt will be given for having paid Government fees. You have to pay separate professional fee to your advocate towards drafting and registering the deed.

There is no relinquishment of rights in this.

You have to execute a settlement deed or gift only in favor of your mother.

The stamp duty varies from one state to another hence you may enquire the same from the local sub registrar's office about it.

1. IN many states the transfer of property between blood relatives is completely exempt from the payment of stamp duty and even registration charges.

2. Only a local or UP based lawyer can tell you what the stamp duty charges, if any, will he.
