What is a stamp duty ?
Share
ShajiAnswered on February 03,2018
Stamp duty is a tax, similar to income tax, collected by the government.. Delay in the payment of stamp duty leads to penalty charges. A stamp duty paid instrument / document is considered a proper and legal instrument / document and has evidentiary value and is admitted as evidence in courts. A rental agreement draft should be printed on a stamp paper of a suitable stamp value according to the Stamp Act of each State to make it legally valid.

Rtd Motor Vehicles Inspector, Insurance Surveyor and Accident Investigator . Answered on September 04,2021I recently purchased a used car in Trivandrum and looking for help on RTO name transfer. Would like to know approved address proof documents. None of my proofs like Aadhar, Passport,etc. have Trivandrum address as I stay here only for my job for some time. I have a rental agreement and got an address proof letter from my company. But RTO refuses to accept the company address proof as the letter head has Bangalore address of my company in the footer section. But they have clearly mentioned that I reside in Trivandrum. Could you help me to know what proofs to do name transfer can I provide more and appreciate any help on the same?
If the RT office refuses with the documents you submitted, you have no options.
