Telangana May Increase Stamp Duty

๐Ÿงพ Telangana May Increase Stamp Duty – What Property Buyers in 2025 Should Know

Source: Times of India – Telangana Cabinet to Review Stamp Duty Hike


๐Ÿ“ข Government Plans to Revise Stamp Duty & Land Rates

The Telangana government is expected to increase stamp duty and land values as part of a broader cabinet discussion in mid-2025. This decision will directly affect property registration costs for plot buyers in Hyderabad, especially in developing areas like:

  • Rizwan Colony

  • Shastripuram

  • Ghouse Nagar

  • Bandlaguda

  • Kishanbagh

๐Ÿ“Œ If you're planning to buy or register land, it’s important to understand what this means for your pocket.


๐Ÿฆ What is Stamp Duty?

Stamp Duty is the tax you pay to the government when you buy or register a property. It is calculated based on the government-assessed land value (called guideline value or government rate), not the market price.

Currently in Telangana (2025 rates):

  • Stamp Duty: 4%

  • Transfer Duty (Surcharge): 1.5%

  • Registration Fee: 0.5%

➡️ Total Cost: ~6% of property value


๐Ÿ”บ What’s Changing?

The government is discussing:

  • Increasing stamp duty by 1% or more

  • Revising land values for various colonies (govt rate hikes)

  • Bringing unregularized layouts under taxable category

This will mean:

  • You will pay more to register your plot

  • AGPA registrations may also get costlier

  • Land values will go up officially (affecting taxes and resale)


๐Ÿ“ Areas Likely to Be Affected

If new stamp duty and land values are approved, buyers in these areas may feel the impact:


(These are only estimates. Official revision expected soon.)


๐Ÿ›‘ What Should Buyers Do Now?

  • ๐Ÿƒ‍♂️ If you're ready to buy, register your property before the price hike

  • ๐Ÿ“„ Finish pending AGPA conversions or Sale Deeds early

  • ๐Ÿ”Ž Check your layout’s approval and LRS status

  • ๐Ÿ’ฌ Ask brokers/document writers if your colony is listed for revision


๐Ÿ’ฌ Local Broker Insight (HydZameen Research)

One broker in Bahadurpura told us:

“Registration office people already hinted that new rates will come before Dasara or Diwali. Buyers doing AGPA now may lose ₹10–15k later if they delay Sale Deed.”


✅ Summary

  • Telangana govt may raise stamp duty and land rates in 2025

  • Buyers will have to pay higher registration charges

  • Affects both AGPA and full Sale Deed purchases

  • Smart buyers should act before the official hike is notified
