It is a tax, similar to sales tax [VAT] and income tax collected by the government. Stamp Duty is payable under Section 3 of the Bombay Stamp Act, 1958.

Different amount of Stamp Duty is payable for different type of documents as per Schedule-1 of The Bombay Stamp Act, 1958. Stamp Duty must be paid in full and on time.

If there is a delay in payment stamp duty, it attracts penalty.

A stamp duty paid document is considered a proper and legal document and as such gets evidentiary value and is admitted as evidence in the court.

Document not properly stamped, is not admitted as evidence by the court.
