I will execute an Affidavit from USA and send the papers to India, will arrange to pay stamp duty within 3 months. I have my postal address in Gujarat and the RTA in Maharastra.
Please guide whether I attract the stamp duty per Gujrat (Rs 20) or Maharastra (Rs 100).

As per my experience, as you will sign & execute the documents at US and deliver it at Mumbai; So, stamp duty as per Maharashtra act will be applicable. Our advocate team mate may enlighten more on the legal aspect.

As such now stamp duty is paid by e-franking, some of the banks also frank it.. So, let them decide whichever nearby office/bank suits either of them. Let them also confirm when to perform e-franking, as generally, it is to be franked first, and then signed.
