What is Property Registration Cost?
When you buy property in India, the agreement price is only part of the cost. You also pay stamp duty (a state tax on the sale deed) and a registration fee to register the property in your name. Together these typically add 5–8% to the property value, and the rates vary by state and sometimes by the buyer's gender.
Formula
Registration cost is a percentage of the property value:
Stamp duty = property value × stamp duty % Registration fee = property value × reg. % Total registration = stamp duty + reg. fee + legal Total on-road cost = property value + total registration Typical: stamp duty 4–9%, registration 0.5–1% (varies by state; women buyers often pay less).
