In Tamil Nadu, the stamp duty for rental agreements is usually 1% of the total annual rent plus the security deposit. However, there’s a maximum limit: you’ll either pay 1% of the total consideration or Rs. 20,000, whichever is lower. So, when creating a rental agreement, keep this in mind to ensure compliance with the state regulations.
To get your rental agreement stamped and registered in Tamil Nadu, follow these steps:
Draft the Agreement:
Prepare a comprehensive rental agreement that includes details such as rent amount, security deposit, duration, and other terms.
Both the landlord and tenant should sign the agreement.
Stamp Duty Payment:
Calculate the stamp duty as 1% of the total annual rent plus the security deposit.
Pay the stamp duty at the nearest authorized stamp vendor or online through the Tamil Nadu e-Stamp portal.
Visit the Sub-Registrar Office:
Visit the Sub-Registrar of Assurances’ office with the signed rental agreement.
Fill out the necessary forms and submit them along with the stamp duty receipt.
Registration Process:
The Sub-Registrar will verify the documents and register the rental agreement.
Both parties (landlord and tenant) must be present during registration.
Pay the registration fees (usually 1% of the total annual rent plus the security deposit, capped at Rs. 20,000).
Collect Registered Agreement:
Once registered, collect the stamped and registered rental agreement from the Sub-Registrar’s office.
Remember to carry valid identification documents and any additional proofs required by the Sub-Registrar.
