What is the stamp duty in Kerala for 2026?

Kerala levies 8% stamp duty for male sole/joint owners and 8% for women sole owners. Registration is 2% (capped at ₹varies where applicable).

Is there any female discount in Kerala stamp duty?

Kerala does not currently offer a separate stamp duty rate for female buyers — both are charged 8%.

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 Kerala is 8% for male buyers and 8% for female buyers, plus 2% registration.
