What is the value on which stamp duty is to be paid?

As per Section 21 of the Indian Stamp Act, the issue price/transaction price is the value for the payment of stamp duty and not the par or nominal value of the security. For example, in case of issue of the security is at a premium, then the stamp duty is payable on the issue price which includes par value and the premium thereon.

What is the place from where share certificate must be issued?

The companies act is silent on the point and nowhere prescribes that the share certificate must be issued from the registered address of the company, in other words, a company is free to issue securities from any other place as well. The stamp duty shall be paid in the state where from where the share certificate has been issued. Our suggestion is to hold a proper board meeting at any place and issue share certificate and pay the stamp duty based on the rate of that specific state.

What about stamp duty on duplicate share certificate or split share certificate?

The regulation 25 of the schedule I of the Indian stamp act provides that on the issue of the duplicate share certificate or issue of fresh share certificate on splitting the value of stamp duty is only Rs. 1/- [One Rupee]

What happens if the stamp duty is not paid within 30 days?

Though the non-payment of stamp duty is a criminal offense for which the directors may be sentenced to imprisonment, however in case department has not launched the prosecution, then you shall be able to pay stamp duty by following the same method. However, after that, the department shall send a notice for determination of penalty.

What is Share Certificate Franking?

Franking of the share certificate is one among several methods by way of which the stamp duty is paid on the share certificate, and these are impressions made on the share certificate by using a Franking Machine, which is usually installed in the office of the sub-registrar or collector of stamp office of the respective stamp.
