Stamp duty is the tax amount an individual pays to the Government (Central and/or State of Gujarat) for executing various types of deeds or documents that involve a financial exchange, transaction, or obligation. This duty is applicable to the registration of sale, purchase, or transfer of immovable property in Gujarat. During the registration of a document or deed, stamp duty in Gujarat is paid according to the fixed rates established by the state. For instance, when registering a partnership deed or an LLP agreement during LLP registration, the corresponding stamp duty is levied. This tax ensures that legal transactions are officially recorded and validated by the state.
