27 September 2007 Share Certificates.
In Delhi the Stamp duty @ of Re.1/- for every one thousand rupees or part thereof of the value of shares has to be paid at the office of Collector of Stamps/SDM.
please check the state rates where it is done as stamp duty is state subject.
franking is allowed and done by inspector general(IG) of stamps in each state.
before stamping you have to declare before the IG the value fOr which STAMPS have to be franked.usually franking done on face value of shares.you may declare face value and get franking done.
