Quick answer

Stamp duty on rent agreements in India is state-specific, not a single national amount. Some states use fixed estimates, some formulas, and Maharashtra requires the official IGR portal output to be treated as final. Use state-specific calculation first, then verify payable values on official portals before execution.
