Frequently asked questions

What is the total cost of property registration in India?+

Total property registration costs in India typically add 6–10% to the property value. This includes stamp duty (4–7% depending on state and gender), registration fee (~1%), mortgage deed registration (~0.2% of loan for home loan buyers), legal/documentation charges (~₹7,500), and GST if the property is under construction.

Do women get lower stamp duty rates in India?+

Yes. Several Indian states offer reduced stamp duty rates for women buyers. For example, Delhi charges 4% for women vs 6% for men. Maharashtra charges 4% for women vs 5% for men. Registering property in a woman's name or jointly with a woman can save significant amounts on a high-value property.

What is the registration fee for property in India?+

Registration fee is typically 1% of the property value in most states. Delhi caps it at ₹1 lakh. Maharashtra charges 1% with no cap. Tamil Nadu charges 4% which is higher than most. The registration fee is paid at the sub-registrar's office at the time of property registration.

What is a mortgage deed and how much does it cost?+

A mortgage deed is a legal document registered with the sub-registrar that records the bank's charge on your property for a home loan. It costs approximately 0.1–0.5% of the loan amount, capped at around ₹50,000 in most states. This is a one-time cost paid at loan sanction.
