No. 5 / Stamp Duty 06 / Ltr. No. 58/06/1224 Inspector General at Registration & Stamp Maharashtra State, Pune Office, Pune. To, Date : 10/08/2006 The Superintendent of Stamps, Mumbai. Sub : Levy of Stamp Duty on the Deeds of Agreements made prior to 10/12/1985 Reference : Your Letter No.BOM/5064/06 dtd. 03/08/2006 Referring to the points raised in the above letter we explain as follows : On the Sale Agreements executed before 10/12/1985, Stamp Duty applicable was as per the article 5(h) of Bombay Stamp Duty Act, 1958 and not as per Article 25 of the Act. This is as per the judgment given by Honorable Mumbai High Court in the case of Padma Nair V/S Dy. Collector, Stamps & Adjudication and others. If the State Agreements executed before 10/12/1985 are submitted under Article 31, the Collector of Stamps cannot give any remark on such Agreements under Article 32 C (A) & (B). Instead of issuing any order, under Article 33 or Amnesty Scheme you can issue a letter in following format to concerned persons who have submitted such Documents. “Your Sale Agreement Deed is executed before 10/12/1985. At the time of execution of your Sale Deed, the Agreement for sale was not treated as a Part Conveyance and provision for collection of stamp duty was not applicable at that time. As such the Agreement is considered properly stamped under the article 5 (h). However it must be noted that when ever you proceed to procure the Conveyance you would be liable to pay the full Stamp Duty on the Current Market Value of your Property as applicable under the rules.
