When and how to pay
- In Telangana the duty is paid via e-stamping, and registered on the IGRS Telangana 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.
