If you purchased a property in Rajasthan, the next step would be to get the sale deed registered. For this, you will need to pay the stamp duty to the government. Should you pay stamp duty on the actual sale price of the property or the DLC rate, which is the government’s valuation of the property you have bought?
Understanding DLC rate
DLC rate stands for District Level Committee rate. It is the minimum rate at which the stamp duty is calculated. Let us see this through an example:
Case 1: When DLC is lower than the actual sale price
Suppose Aarti Khandelwal buys a residential property worth Rs 50 lakhs. The DLC rate of this property is Rs 40 lakhs. However, Khandelwal will need to pay stamp duty on the higher value, which is on Rs 50 lakhs.
Case 2: When DLC is higher than actual sale price
Suppose N Sundarajan buys a property worth Rs 60 lakhs and the DLC rate for this property is Rs 65 lakhs. Therefore, Sundarajan will have to pay stamp duty on the higher of the two, which is at Rs 65 lakhs.
Where to find DLC rates?
To get the correct DLC rate, you will have to check the government websites. These are revised and updated from time to time, so, make sure that you are referring to the current DLC rates.
