Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether stamp duty and registration fees paid for a residential property purchase are eligible for deduction under Section 80C of the Income Tax Act. While initially questioned, the consensus confirms that these expenses are indeed deductible, up to the overall limit of Rs 1.5 lakh under 80C, even if no housing loan is involved in the purchase.

No you cannot get such deduction under section 80C

As  per  section 80 (c) (2) (xviii) (d)  of  the  Income  Tax  act  1961  , any sum paid  during the  previous year for   Stamp duty  , and  registration fees   for the purpose  of transfer of  house  property ,  you will get  deduction  maximum  up to  1 lac  50 thousand while computing  total income being an individual   . 

Just  confirm  with  other also  . 

It's deductible...
stamp duty, registration fee and other expenses for the purpose of transfer of such house property to the assessee,

Kapadia Pravin is correct.

You will get deduction U/S80C even without having loan.
