Dear Frns,

Our registered office is in delhi but our corporate office and factory is in Haryana.All Directors, CEO other working staff are based only at factory in Haryana.Board meetings and decesion, issue of order are only from Haryana office.

For issue of share certificate board meeting is also held in Gurgaon Haryana.

Can we we stamp duty on share certificate as per Haryana stamp act OR it is required to be paid as per Delhi act.

Please refer case law, book or section in support, if any.

You have to pay stamp duty as per the state law in which company's registered office is situated. Place where board meetings are held, etc are not relevant in this case. e.g. if registered office is situated in Delhi and board meeting are held in maharashtra or out of India, stamp duty as per Delhi Laws will be applicable.

I think u can held the Board meetings in Haryana and than u r required to pay duty acc. to state in which Board meeting is held. I am doing the same. Stamp duty on share cert. in Haryana is Re. 1 irrespective of value of share certificate.

Thanks,

Poonam

Hello Dear

I also agrees with Poonam comment, she is right.

U r holding ur Board Meetings in Haryana and surely directors are signing the same in Haryana so the place of issuing the certf. is situated in Haryana, so u have to pay stamp duty as per haryana law.

thanks to all for valuable inputs.

One more query for u.

1. Is this compulsory to get share certificate stamped with SDM office.

2. Or we can also use physical stamp, and affix on plain paper as amount is quiet high (lacs).

3. Whether adhseive stamp or REVENUE STAMP can be sued.

if u are paying duty on share cer. of back date than u r required to pay duty by using adhensive revenue stamps only . fix the stamps on legal size paper. and in case u wants to pay duty on cer. issued on the current date than u can pay duty and get it stamped in tis hazadri court.

no further stamp duty is to be paid because u can issue duplicate share certificate with the name change in shareholder register
