Stamp duty on share transfer in delhi

Hi

In case of transfer of shares of pvt ltd. company registered in Delhi, Stamp duty payable is 25 paise per hundred rupees of the value of shares.

 

In this case, please tell Value of shares means face value of Share i.e. Rs. 10/- or the price at which shares are transferred i.e. Rs. 50.? Also tell who will pay the stamp duty?

Please tell me some source also where the clarification related to this is given.

 

Regards

dear hanna garg

share transfer stamp has to be affixed on the consideration amount paid by the transferee to the transferor. If the face value is Rs.10/- per share and if the sale value is Rs.50/- per share then you need to calculate and pay stamp duty on Rs.50/- per share. Further the share trasnfer stamps has to be borne and paid by the transferee.

Hi

 

Under Indian Stamp Act, Stamp Duty is written as 25 paisa for per hundered rupees or part thereof of the value of shares. But nowhere it is mentioned what value of shares means i.e. face value or consideration.

 

From where, i can get this clarification?

ITS URGENT

Hi

 

Find the attached file for rate of stamp duty in Delhi

Stamp Duty in Delhi says:

 

Transfer (whether with or without consideration)

(a) of shares in an incorporated Company or other body corporate: Seventy-five paise for every hundered rupees or part thereof of the value of the share

Presumably therefore, consideration is of no consequence. It is the value of shares that is material.

Please help me out. i have transfer 5000 shares of Rs. 10, what should be stamp duty in that case. company is register in delhi and it is a private company, 

 

Hi Vikash, according to stamp duty act as applicable in delhi, The prevailing rate is 25 paise per 100 rupees or part thereof of the value of share. here value of share means the value on which share is transfered i.e, fair market value and not face value.

hence stamp duty payable by you would be rupees 125

0.25/100*50000(5000*10)

Hi, 

Even if your stamp duty is turing out to be Rupees 0.25 Paisa, you have to purchase share transfer stamp of Ruppes one, as it is the minimum denomination for Share transfer stamp. 

You may pay higher duty for which you are liable, but in any case youy canot pay lesser duty. so purchase one Share transfer stamp of Rupees one.
