How Stamp Duty is Calculated in Jharkhand

Stamp duty in Jharkhand is calculated on the higher of:

A. Agreed Sale Price

The price the buyer and seller settle on

B. Government Value

The official circle rates for your locality, from Jharkhand Registration

If you agree to buy a flat for Rs 60L but the government value for that locality works out to Rs 65L, stamp duty is calculated on Rs 65L (the higher number). This is why knowing the government value before negotiating is critical.
