25 July 2025 In Maharashtra, **stamp duty on a personal guarantee** (such as a bank guarantee given by an individual) is governed by the **Maharashtra Stamp Act**.

### Key points:

* For **personal guarantee instruments**, the usual **stamp duty is Rs. 100** (a fixed duty), as per the Maharashtra Stamp Act.
* This applies when an individual or firm provides a guarantee to a bank or any other party.
* If the guarantee is executed as a **registered document**, additional registration fees may apply.

---

### Summary:

| Instrument | Stamp Duty (Maharashtra) |
| ------------------ | -------------------------- |
| Personal Guarantee | Rs. 100 (fixed stamp duty) |

---

### Additional notes:

* If the guarantee is part of a larger loan or security agreement, check if the loan agreement itself attracts stamp duty based on its loan amount.
* It is advisable to **stamp the guarantee document before execution** to avoid penalty or inadmissibility as evidence.
