Stamp duty shocker in Punjab! 17 items set for steep hike
Stamp duty on 17 items is set to increase steeply in Punjab as the state government Wednesday approved an ordinance to amend a law to pave way for revision of rates with a view to mobilising additional resources.
The Cabinet, under the chairmanship of Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh, noted that the new rates were higher than those of neighboring Haryana. Image courtesy: Reuters
