The Stamp Duty is offset if you give POA to Buyer, but this is risky to give POA to buyer.

5% Stamp Duty is not offset at the time sale deed registration if POA is given to non-
blood relative (other than buyer)

My suggestion: Give Special or Specific Power of attorney (SPOA) to present the deed in sub-registrar office. Stamp Duty is just Rs. 200 irrespective of blood relative, non-blood relative or property value.

Under the SPOA, you can avoid paying hefty stamp duty of 5% of property value, instead just pay Rs. 200
