Maharashtra Stamp Duty & Registration Charges Calculator for Pune Rent Agreements (2026)

KOKJAGUAR Advisory March 30, 2026 4 Min Read

Understanding the Maharashtra 0.25% Stamp Duty Formula

Under Article 36A of the Maharashtra Stamp Act, stamp duty on a Leave and License agreement is levied at a flat rate of 0.25% of the total consideration value. Calculating this consideration requires adding total rent payable over the tenure plus notional interest on refundable security deposits.

KOKJAGUAR Consultancy provides automated stamp duty estimation for landlords and tenants. View our registered rent agreement guide or use our rent agreement service.

Statutory Calculation Formula

  1. Total Monthly Rent: Multiply monthly rent by total agreement tenure in months (e.g., ₹25,000 × 11 months = ₹2,75,000).
  2. Notional Deposit Value: Calculate 10% annual interest on refundable deposit for the duration (e.g., 10% of ₹1,00,000 deposit for 11 months = ₹9,166).
  3. Total Consideration: ₹2,75,000 + ₹9,166 = ₹2,84,166.
  4. Stamp Duty (0.25%): 0.25% of ₹2,84,166 = ₹710.42 (rounded up to nearest ₹100 = ₹800).
  5. Government Registration Fee: Flat ₹1,000 for urban municipal areas (PMC/PCMC limits) or ₹500 for rural gram panchayat areas.
