HUF AFFIDAVIT vs HUF DEED - REQUIREMENTS & STAMP DUTY

HUF AFFIDAVIT vs HUF DEED - REQUIREMENTS & STAMP DUTY

I’m considering an HUF for tax planning and need clarity on two documents:

1. Purpose & Necessity:

  • What’s the difference between HUF Affidavit and HUF Deed of Declaration?
  • Which document(s) are required for PAN application and bank account opening?
  • Which document(s) are needed for future references?

2. Stamp Paper & Duty:

  • What stamp paper value is required for "HUF Affidavit"? What should be Category/purpose to be selected?
  • What stamp paper value is required for "HUF Deed of Declaration"? What should be Category/purpose to be selected?
Replies (1)
  • Affidavit: Sworn statement before a notary; cheaper, simple, widely used for PAN cards and basic identification.

  • Deed: Comprehensive legal document; stronger evidentiary value, required by most major banks and for asset/property management.

  • Stamp Duty: Affidavits use low-denomination stamp paper (INR 10–100), while Deeds require higher-value stamp paper (typically INR 100–500+) categorized under Declarations/Deeds as per local state laws.
