Hi

1) Stamp duty, Transfer Fee and Registration charges are applicable only for Transfer of Immovable Property.

2) There is no stamp duty, transfer fee or registration charges for movable property.

3) Chapter III of transfer of property Act is applicable for Gift of Immovable property.

4) In telangana state , for gift of immovable property to relatives(son/daughter/wife) the following charges will apply.

5) The charges are based on Fair market value(sub-registrar office values)

a) Stamp duty - 1% of Fair market value of property.

b) Transfer Fee-0.5% of Fair market value of property

c) Registration fees-0.5% of Fair market value of property(Minimum Rs1000 and maximum Rs10000).

You can use the following link http://registration.telangana.gov.in/TGMV_Client/index.jsp for calculation of stamp duty, transfer fee and Registration charges.

Hope this information is useful.

Gift deed means the instrument used to transfer movable or immovable property from the Donor to the Donee without any consideration expected from the part of the Donee.

The applicable stamp duty for GIFT (IN FAVOUR OF RELATIVES AS DEFINED U/S 56 (2) OF IT ACT,1961 AND GOVT./LOCAL BODIES/UDAs) it shall be 1%, transfer duty is 1.5% on the market value or consideration whichever is higher and registration fee 0.5% (subject to a minimum of Rs.1000/- and maximum of Rs.10000/-).

The stamp duty for gift in other cases shall be 4% and the other charges will remain same.

For a settlement deed within family members the stamp duty is 1% and there is no transfer duty.
