How to pay stamp duty in Delhi?
With the government introducing e-stamping, stamp duty has to be paid through e-stamping in Delhi. So, there are no offline channels through which this duty could be paid. As the centre has appointed the Stock Holding Corporation of India Limited (SHCIL) as the agency responsible for all e-stamps in India, buyers will have to visit its official portal, www.shcilestamp.com and make the payment there. SHCIL has authorised collection centres called ACC, which act as the intermediary between the SHCIL and the buyer.
In case you are acting through an ACC, you could pay the stamp duty in cash, as well. You could also pay the fund through cheque/demand draft/pay order/RTGS/NEFT/account to account transfer.
After making the payments, the buyer can book an online appointment with the sub-registrar’s office, by logging on to srams.delhi.gov.in to initiate the registration process.
