The documents are called \u201cinstruments\u201d chargeable of duty mentioned in section 3 of the Indian Stamp Act, 1899. The documents include bonds, deeds, promissory notes, bills of exchange, agreements, debentures, leases, affidavits, and other legal documents. To make any document legally binding, stamp duty needs to be paid to state governments.\u00a0Through online stamp duty payment, one can easily make any document legally valid and enforceable.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Even though there is one unified Indian Stamp Act, the state governments levy their own laws according to the State Amendment Acts and enforce charges and rates complying with the state stamp act. Stamp Duty policies vary from state to state and depend on the market value of the property,\u00a0 land laws, property laws, IT acts, and even age &amp; gender as well. The central stamp duty is levied on specific instruments, and the central government determines the rate.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-8285\" src=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/What\u2019s-the-Best-Way-to-Pay-Stamp-Duty-For-Businesses.jpg\" alt=\"online stamp duty payment for Business\" width=\"1604\" height=\"750\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Stamp duty is State subject according to the constitution. Stamp Duty can be paid in a conventional way certified by the jurisdictional sub-registrar on or before the date of document execution. But the traditional way of paying stamp duty is a tedious process as it takes a vast amount of time for a complete stamping execution.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">In the modern digital era, physical paper-based workflows are gradually becoming obsolete, and AI &amp; ML technologies are pioneering digital workflows to upgrade the paper-based methods of stamp duty payment.<span style=\"color: #333333;\"> <a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/sebi-introduces-ddpi-to-replace-poa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digital transformation<\/a> <\/span>has made its way to the stamping process as well. Business firms, legal entities, entrepreneurs, and other sectors are implementing digital stamping workflow for\u00a0fast and instant real-time online stamp duty payment.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><b>What Are the Legal Requirements for Stamp Duty?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\">Stamp duty acts as evidence of ownership in the court if disputes arise. Stamp duty is the additional cost one has to bear while purchasing or selling property, transferring assets, property, and shares, hypothecation, delivering products from one place to another, or making any document legally valid. One can simply avoid stamp duty payment while dealing with the above-mentioned legal activities. But to prove ownership in the future,<span style=\"color: #333333;\"><a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/stamp-duty-whose-responsibility-is-it\/articleshow\/2477455.cms\"> stamp duty is essential and the only way to seek legal remedies<\/a>.\u00a0Online stamp duty payment is an easy and quick way to fulfill legal requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Admissible Evidence<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\">If stamp duty is not paid, the document is not legally valid. The court or any other legal authority can not accept the document and provide admissible evidence to support the document legally.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Document Registration<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\">The instrument is registered in the government database as a valid document. With the serial number of stamp papers, data of any duty transaction can be checked.\u00a0The document\u2019s authenticity can be verified with the unique certificate number or associated e-challan. Stamp paper, once used, can not be reused for another instrument.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Securing Legal Remedy<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\">Stamp duty is rendered in full. Any citizen abiding by the law can seek juridical remedy in the case of a lawsuit. The party should pay the full amount of stamp duty at one time.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Consequences of Non-payment<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\">If the stamp duty is not paid, the document is not legally supported and can be treated as a fake document. The ownership cannot be verified. Therefore, it is essential that the stamp duty is paid on time. The delayed payment can cause specific costs or penalty fines. In Chapter VII, \u201cCriminal Offences and Procedures\u201d of the Indian Stamp Act, the penalties are mentioned in detail from Sections 62-72. If someone wants to avoid stamp duty payment, but later the document is brought to light, the stamp duty can be tenfold with some criminal offenses.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Criminal Charges<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\">If someone is associated with some purchase or sale of any property without paying stamp duty, it is against the law and government listing. The document is unregistered and the associated responsible person can be held liable for criminal charges.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><b>Types of Stamp Duty Payment<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/what-are-the-different-ways-to-pay-stamp-duty\">Stamp Duty can be paid in multiple ways<\/a>.<\/span> The convenience level varies for these different types of methods.

Physical stamping can be done in three ways, as described below.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Adhesive stamps<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\">The Adhesive stamps are used for specific classes of documents as enumerated in Section 11 of the Indian Stamp Act. The cost of the stamp duty is affixed on the first page of the document. The specific stamp duty format is the proof of the document being stamped. Such stamp papers can be availed from licensed stamp vendors or government treasuries.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Impressed stamps<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7790\" src=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/What\u2019s-the-Best-Way-to-Pay-Stamp-Duty-For-Businesses-04-1.jpg\" alt=\"Impressed - Image\" width=\"770\" height=\"360\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\">Impressed stamp papers are mostly used in physical stamping as it denotes the conventional way of stamping. Impressed stamps are such stamps that are embossed or engraved. They are usually printed on security presses. The stamp papers have serial numbers, denomination details, name of the issued state, and the stamp certificate number. Impressed stamp papers contain translucent images and a security strip on the left making them impossible to replicate. Such stamp papers can be obtained from authorized stamp vendors or legal authorities.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans';\"><b>Franking<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7791\" src=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/What\u2019s-the-Best-Way-to-Pay-Stamp-Duty-For-Businesses-05-1.jpg\" alt=\"Franking - Image\" width=\"770\" height=\"360\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; font-size: 17px; font-family: 'open sans'; padding-left: 30px;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #333333;\"><a style=\"color: #333333;\" href=\"https:\/\/melento.ai\/en-in\/blog\/all-about-franking\">Franking<\/a><\/span><\/strong> is a part of stamp duty payment that includes impressing an instrument with \u201cRed\u201d ink.
