Is there a slab or threshold in Gujarat stamp duty on land?

Not on a sale deed. Stamp duty is a flat 4.9 per cent and the registration fee a flat 1 per cent, with no threshold and no cap. Thresholds exist on partition and on a mortgage without possession.

How do I work out the charge on my own plot?

Take the published rate for the village, multiply it by the parcel size in the same unit the rate is printed in, and take 5.9 per cent of the result.

Arithmetic / scaling

What the charge comes to on a bigger plot

The charge on a land purchase is a straight line. There is no slab structure, no threshold where the rate jumps and no relief for a small buyer. Double the land and you double the charge, and this page works it out from half an acre to a hundred.

Two thresholds do exist elsewhere in the stamp table, on partition and on a mortgage without possession, and neither of them touches an ordinary sale. On a sale deed there is no step and no upper limit. Both farmland and building land are worked through below in the units the rate book actually uses.

01It is a straight line

Worked on the main farmland rate for Dholera village. Every line is the line above it multiplied out, because there is no threshold, no slab and no relief anywhere in the calculation.

One hundred acres	6,11,08,000	29,94,292	6,11,080	36,05,372

This is the most reassuring page on the site. There is no slab structure, no threshold at which the rate steps up, and no relief for a small purchase or a large one. Double the land and you double the charge.

Two exceptions exist elsewhere in the tables and neither applies to an ordinary sale. Partition steps from 0.25 to 0.50 per cent above a property value of ten crore rupees, and a mortgage without possession steps from 0.35 to 0.70 per cent at the same threshold and is then capped. On a sale deed there is no step and no cap at all.

02Building land, by the square metre

The same thing for building land in the same village, which is priced by the square metre rather than by the acre.

Plot	Government valuation Rs.	Total charge Rs.
500 sq m	1,75,000	10,325
1,000 sq m	3,50,000	20,650
2,000 sq m	7,00,000	41,300
4,047 sq m, about an acre	14,16,450	83,571
10,000 sq m, one hectare	35,00,000	2,06,500

Farmland is priced by the acre and building land by the square metre, which is why the two tables on this page use different units. An acre is 4,046.86 square metres. That conversion is printed here for reading convenience and it is never used in any computation on this site, because each rate is applied in the unit the book prints it in.

03Doing it for your own plot

The arithmetic is simple enough to do on paper. Find the rate for the village on its own page. Multiply by your parcel size in the matching unit. Take 5.9 per cent of the answer.

Or use the calculator, which holds every published rate for every village and does the same three steps.

The figures on this page are illustrative and use declared parcel sizes. Which rate applies to a particular survey number is determined by the Sub-Registrar office having jurisdiction, and on farmland the duty is charged on the price in the deed where that price is higher than the government valuation.

The words on this page, in plain English

Jantri: The government's own price list for land. It is printed village by village and it sets the value the tax is charged on, whatever price the buyer and seller agree between themselves.
Rate band: One printed line in the jantri: a class of land, a road situation and one rate. A village usually has several, and which one applies depends on where the plot sits.
Consideration: The price actually written into the deed.
Market value: Not the price on the street. In this context it is the value the government calculates from the jantri, and it is what the tax is charged on.
Sub-Registrar: The local government office where the deed is presented, the duty is checked and the document is entered in the public record.
