Stamp Duty vs Registration Fee

Both Stamp Duty and Registration Fees are statutory payments imposed by separate laws in India and are not considered as a single payment.

Applicable Stamp Duty (2026 Rates)

The Government of Odisha gives a 1% remission of stamp duty on sale and gift deeds of land and house executed in favour of women, to encourage women to become property owners (Revenue and Disaster Management Department order of 29 November 2016, S.R.O. No. 592/2016).

  • Sale deed in favour of a man: 5% stamp duty
  • Sale or gift deed in favour of a woman: 4% stamp duty

Note: The registration fee stays 2% in both cases.

Note: We could not find an official rate for joint ownership (for example husband and wife together). Ask your Sub-Registrar Office before you pay.

How Property Value Is Considered

The fees are worked out on the value of the property. The Government of Odisha publishes a benchmark value for land, which you can check on the IGR website before you agree a price.

Key Benchmark Factors

Location/Thana/Village: Urban municipal areas like Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Puri, and Rourkela command higher benchmark values.

Land Class (Kisam): The rates vary according to the type of land, whether it be Gharabari (homestead), Saradh (agricultural) or commercial.

Road Proximity: High benchmark rates are for plots that are adjacent to national highways, state highways, or major municipal roads.

Other Possible Charges

In addition to stamp duty and registration costs, here are some other secondary costs to consider:

  • Encumbrance Certificate (EC) fee: The EC fee is listed separately on IGR’s Govt. Fees Details page (EC fee structure). See our guide on the Odisha encumbrance certificate.
  • Deed writing and legal fees: Advocate or deed writer charges are private fees, not government fees, and they vary with the work involved.

How to Check the Amount Before You Go

Prior to visiting the Sub-Registrar Office, you have to find the precise amount of fee required by using the IGR Odisha’s official benchmark and calculator tools.

  1. Go to the official website: igrodisha.gov.in.
  2. Open BenchMark Valuation to see the benchmark value, or the Registration & Stamp Duty Calculator to work out the fees.
  3. Choose your District, Registration Office (SRO), Village/Thana and Kisam (land type), and enter the plot number.
  4. Add the plot area and the unit (Acre, Hectare, Decimal, Sq. Meter or Sq. Feet).
  5. In the calculator, select the deed type (for example Sale Immovable or Gift Immovable) and click Calculate to see the stamp duty and registration fee.

Payment Process

Online processing of the statutory payment is done in Odisha using eChallan in the Odisha Treasury system.

  1. Deed Drafting: Get the sale deed prepared with a certified advocate/ document writer.
  2. Data Entry on IGROdisha: Sign in into the e-Registration portal and fill details of the deed, property, and buyer/seller.
  3. eChallan Generation: Go to the payment stage, which then takes you to the portal of Odisha Cyber Treasury (eChallan).
  4. Online Payment: Pay through internet banking, UPI or debit/credit card.
  5. Download Receipts: Download CRN (Challan Reference Number) receipt and payment token.
  6. Slot Booking: Request a face-to-face appointment in the SRO’s Slot Bookings.
  7. SRO Visit: Bring original documents, photos, biometrics and eChallan receipt on the date of your appointment at the SRO.

Common Mistakes

  • Under-declaring property value: Check the Government benchmark value on IGR first, and do not show a lower value in the deed.
  • Mismatch in Payment Receipts: Make sure that the buyer’s name on eChallan is same as the buyer’s name on draft sale deed.
  • Skipping the EC check: Buying without checking the Encumbrance Certificate (EC) can lead to disputes later.
  • Missing ID documents: Keep the ID proofs of the buyer and seller that the SRO asks for ready on the day.
