What is the stamp duty in West Bengal for 2026?

West Bengal levies 6% stamp duty for male sole/joint owners and 6% for women sole owners. Registration is 1% (capped at ₹varies where applicable).

Is there any female discount in West Bengal stamp duty?

West Bengal does not currently offer a separate stamp duty rate for female buyers — both are charged 6%.

Yes, under Section 80C (₹1.5L cap) in the year of purchase, but only if you opt for the Old tax regime.

Stamp duty in West Bengal is 6% for male buyers and 6% for female buyers, plus 1% registration.
