The Uttar Pradesh Stamp Act, 2010
The Uttar Pradesh Stamp Act, 2010 was a law that said how much stamp duty you had to pay on certain documents, such as deeds, contracts, and receipts. It also said what happened if you didn’t pay the right amount of stamp duty.
The Act was repealed in 2019 because it had a lot of errors in it. The current law that applies to stamp duty in Uttar Pradesh is the Indian Stamp Act, 1899. This law is older, but it is more comprehensive and well-tested.
Here are some examples of documents that are chargeable with stamp duty under the Indian Stamp Act, 1899:
- Deeds of conveyance of immovable property
- Bonds
- Contracts
- Receipts
- Promissory notes
- Bills of exchange
- Cheques
- Wills
The amount of stamp duty payable on these documents varies depending on the type of document and the value of the property or transaction involved.
