Hello Nidhi

Share Transfer Deed is Form 7B. Its a document which executes transfer from transferor to transferee

and needs to get duly stamped. Stamp Duty is 0.25 Paise for Rs.100/-.

Post this share certificate is issued to the Transferee , and stamp duty i guess, applicable is 0.10 paise for

Rs.100/- I dont think there is anything called Share Transfer Certificate in Companies Act 1956.

Issue of Share Certificate is itself a deemed transfer from transferor to transferee.

Experts,

Please advice and pardon me if am wrong.

regards

My Name is Vidhya. I Am a CS trainee.

what is the stamp duty payable in case of multiple transfer of Shares i.e.,

For eg. A transfers X shares to B, B transfers X shares to C, C transfers X shares to D. A is the holding co. of B and B of C and C of D. Is the stamp duty payable on each Share Transfer?

The stamp duty shall be levied @ .25% of market value of shares whether transferred with or without consideration ( Gift). The article 62 of Schedule I of Indian Stamp Act 1899 clearly states so.
