Stamp duty on a rent agreement in Gujarat

In Gujarat, stamp duty on a rent or lease agreement is about 1% of the average annual rent for terms up to 5 years; an agreement of under 11 months attracts a flat ₹300. The registration fee is 1% of the rent (minimum ₹100), and registration is mandatory for terms of 12 months or more.

When and how to pay

  • In Gujarat the duty is paid via e-stamping, and registered on the Garvi portal.
  • Stamp duty and any registration fee are calculated from the rent, deposit and term set out in the agreement. For a registrable lease the deed is registered at the Sub-Registrar's office.
  • An unregistered lease of 12 months or more is not admissible as evidence of its terms, so register where the term requires it.
