Key Rules & Notes for Maharashtra
- Maharashtra levies an additional 1% Metro Cess on properties in Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR), Pune, and Nagpur municipal areas — effectively raising the total stamp duty to 7% for male buyers in these cities.
- The registration fee is capped at ₹30,000 for all property values — making Maharashtra's effective registration cost much lower than the 1% rate suggests for properties above ₹30 lakh.
- Women buyers (sole or first owner) save 1% on stamp duty. On a ₹1 crore property, this is ₹1,00,000 in savings.
- Leave and licence (rental) agreements must also be registered; stamp duty on rent agreements is ₹100–₹500 depending on tenure.
Section 80C deduction: Stamp duty and registration charges paid on residential property purchase are deductible under Section 80C (within the ₹1.5 lakh combined annual limit) under the Old Tax Regime. Claim the deduction in the financial year of payment. This benefit is not available under the New Tax Regime (default from FY2023–24). Consult your CA for eligibility.
