29 June 2012 Respected Members',

When and why a revenue stamp should be used while making a payment? Is it when payment exceeds Rs 5000/- or any other case? I saw that that stamp is being used in the money receipt while making a payment, but don't know why it is used and when it is used.

Please suggest....
