What is e-stamping?
Many states let you pay stamp duty electronically and receive an e-stamp certificate instead of buying physical stamp paper. Stock Holding Corporation of India (SHCIL) acts as the central record-keeping agency for e-stamping in many states.
Stamp duty depends on your state
The amount and the documents that need stamping, such as rent agreements, affidavits and contracts, differ from state to state. Always check your state's current rules.
Adding a digital signature
Once an agreement is stamped, it can be signed digitally with a Digital Signature Certificate, so parties don't need to meet in person to sign.
