Charges for a sale deed in AP
A property sale deed in Andhra Pradesh attracts three separate charges that together add up to 7.5% of the property value: 5% stamp duty, 1.5% transfer duty (paid to the local municipal body or panchayat), and 1% registration fee. All three are calculated on the same base value and paid together at the sub-registrar's office at the time of registration.
Sale value or guideline value — which applies
The government sets a guideline value (sometimes called market value or ready reckoner rate) for every locality, revised periodically — most recently statewide with effect from 1 February 2026. Registration charges are calculated on whichever is higher of your actual sale agreement value and the guideline value for that property. This means you can never register a property below its guideline value to reduce the charges — if your agreed price is lower than the guideline value, you still pay duty on the guideline value.
Charges for gift, partition and other deeds
Non-sale deeds carry different, generally lower rates. A gift to a specified family member or a partition among family members typically attracts a much smaller combined charge than a sale, since no money changes hands at market value. Mortgage, lease and power-of-attorney documents each have their own separate rate depending on the loan amount, lease term or nature of the authority granted. Use the "Deed type" dropdown above to switch — these secondary rates are reviewed less often than the standard sale-deed rate, so confirm the exact figure at the sub-registrar's office before relying on it for a large transaction.
How to check the official guideline value
Visit registration.ap.gov.in and use the market value search for your village/ward and survey number. Guideline values are revised periodically, most recently statewide from 1 February 2026 — always check the current value before finalising a sale agreement, since it directly sets your minimum registration cost regardless of the price you actually agree.
Frequently asked questions
What is the registration charge for a 50 lakh property in AP?
At the standard 7.5% rate (5% stamp duty + 1.5% transfer duty + 1% registration fee), a ₹50,00,000 property attracts ₹3,75,000 in total registration charges — provided the guideline value isn't higher than the sale value; if it is, the charge is based on the guideline value instead.
What is the stamp duty rate in Andhra Pradesh?
The stamp duty itself is 5% of the sale or guideline value (whichever is higher), plus a 1.5% transfer duty and a 1% registration fee — 7.5% total for a standard sale deed.
Do I pay duty on the sale price or the guideline value?
Whichever is higher. You cannot reduce your registration cost by declaring a sale price below the government guideline value for that property.
How much does it cost to register a gift deed to a family member in AP?
Significantly less than a sale deed — gift to a specified family member typically attracts around 1.5% combined, compared to 7.5% for a sale, since it isn't a market transaction. Confirm the exact current rate at the sub-registrar's office.
Where can I check the current guideline value for my property?
On registration.ap.gov.in, using the market value search for your specific village/ward and survey number. Guideline values were last revised statewide from 1 February 2026.
