# Transfer Cost Check — Stamp, Registration & Taxes Config gate: none beyond firm profile, but EVERY rate below is finance-instrument- sensitive: verify against the current Finance Act/Ordinance and the latest SRO **before quoting** (`/bd-law-watch:update-check --topic tax`). ## Cost stack (verify each rate — they change annually) | Head | Source instrument | Note | |---|---|---| | Stamp duty | Stamp Act 1899 + current Finance instrument | deed-value based; concessions area-specific | | Registration fee | Registration Act 1908 fee table (SRO) | slab by value | | Local government tax | Local Government (City Corporation/Union Parishad) Acts | % of deed value by area | | VAT | VAT & SD Act 2012 | developer sales — construction-stage VAT `[verify rate/SRO]` | | Advance tax at registration | Income Tax Act 2023 (transfer-of-property withholding; former 53H lineage) | per-katha/area minimums via SRO `[verify]` | | Mutation | SAT Act record-of-rights process | DCR + fees | ## Procedure 1. Establish deed value vs mouza-rate minimum (whichever regime is current — `[verify]`). 2. Compute each head with the current instrument cited by name/SRO number. 3. Present buyer/seller/developer allocation per the draft contract, flag deviations from market practice, and note under-declaration risk (ভূমি অপরাধ আইন ২০২৩ + tax audit). 4. Output a cost table + assumptions + "rates verified against [instrument, date]" line. ## Guardrails No number leaves this skill without its source instrume
