sir, according to me if all the condition of clause xiv of sec 47 is fulfilled , and takeover agreement is filed with ROC, than there is no need of any kind of stamp duty,. becoz it is not a transfer as per sec 47 itself. also pls refer to clause e of sec 49 (1), where cost of acquisition to the new company has been taken at cost to the previous owner. stamp duty is required if make a sale deed ,otherwise it is not required
