UP Stamp Duty Exemption for Ex-Servicemen: Complete Rules, Agricultural Land & Registry Process

Jai Hind saathiyo,

Agar aap Army, Navy ya Air Force se retired hain aur Uttar Pradesh me aawasiya plot, flat ya gaon me kheti ki zameen (agricultural land) khareedne ja rahe hain, toh UP Government ke official rules ke mutabiq aapko Stamp Duty me badi chhoot milti hai.

Kayi Fauji bhaiyon ko is niyam ki poori jankari na hone ki wajah se registry office me lakhon rupaye ka nuksan ho jata hai. Is topic par complete official rules, government order (GO) aur ground reality ka breakdown yahan share kar raha hoon:

Key Highlights & Official Mandate:

• Official GO: Shasanadesh Sankhya 583/94-2-2018-700(03)/2018 (Date: 20 June 2018).
• Exemption Limit: ₹20 Lakh tak ke circle rate valuation par 100% Stamp Duty Maaf (Zero Stamp Duty) hai.
• ₹20 Lakh Se Zyada Value Par: Pehle ₹20 Lakh par chhoot milti hai, aur keval balance amount par hi stamp duty deni hoti hai.

Agricultural Land (Gaon Ki Kheti Zameen) Ke Niyam:

• Shahar me normal stamp duty 7% lagti hai (5% base + 2% local body surcharge).
• Gram Panchayat ki agricultural land par 2% urban surcharge nahi lagta, isliye wahan base rate 5% hota hai.
• Ex-Servicemen exemption dono par barabar lagu hoti hai — yani gaon ki kheti zameen par bhi ₹20 Lakh tak stamp duty bilkul ₹0 lagegi.

Zaroori Documents Checklist:

1. Original Discharge Book (Mandatory - Sub-Registrar is par exemption ki official seal lagate hain).
2. PPO (Pension Payment Order) copy.
3. ESM Identity Card (Zila Sainik Kalyan Board dwara jari).
4. UP Domicile Certificate (ya Discharge book me UP address).
5. Non-Availment Affidavit (Shapath patra ki pehle yeh labh nahi liya hai).
