Do I need to pay stamp duty if I am purchasing a property through the PMAY scheme?
Yes. You are required to pay stamp duty even if you have purchased a house under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) scheme. However, some states have fixed stamp duty charges for housing units built under the PMAY scheme. For example, in Maharashtra, affordable houses under the PMAY scheme attract a flat stamp duty of Rs. 1,000.
