In March 2022, the Maharashtra government passed a bill in the state assembly under which there is a stamp duty waiver on properties on resale. This rule applies to properties resold within one year to three years of purchase. As per the revised rule, stamp duty in Maharashtra will now be paid only on the difference in the buying and selling prices of a property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is stamp duty and why does it matter? Simply put, it is a percentage of your property\u2019s market value, and the Central Government decides the number for each state. So, the stamp duty rates in Maharashtra will vary depending upon where you want to buy a house. Stamp duty or property registration charges apply to both residential and commercial real estate, including freehold and leasehold properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is all you need to know about stamp duty in Maharashtra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the factors that affect stamp duty and registration charges?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Registration charges and stamp duty in Maharashtra don\u2019t remain constant for all citizens. These figures vary slightly based on the following factors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Gender of the buyer<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Age of the buyer<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Type of the property<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Age of the property<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Let us now explore each factor that affects stamp duty in Maharashtra, one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    #1 Gender of the buyer<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Relevant authorities have consistently encouraged women to buy property in their name. Even the state of Maharashtra provides a concession on stamp duty and registration charges for female home buyers. For example, the stamp duty and charges for women buyers in Mumbai in March 2022 were 2%, which was 1% lower than the previous Maharashtra stamp duty rates (listed in the table above.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    #2 Age of the buyer<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Concessions in stamp duty and registration charges are also provided to senior citizens buying a house in Maharashtra. Therefore, if you\u2019re a senior citizen, now might be the best time to purchase a house. Not only are you entitled to a reduction in stamp duty and registration charges, but you can take advantage of the reduced home loan interest rates<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    #3 Type of the property<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    A residential property attracts a lower stamp duty and charges than a commercial property. So, if you\u2019re buying a house in Maharashtra, know that you\u2019re paying less than a businessperson, opening their outfit within the state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    #4 Age of the property<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Typically, older properties that make up the second home market for many Indians attract lower stamp duty and registration charges. Properties in highly-developed or up-and-coming areas with new construction attract much higher charges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
