If the Stamp Act of your state provides any stamp duty for the execution of such instrument, then yes you have to pay such duty in court at the time of its admissibility as exhibit.

Indemnity bond should be executed on the stamp paper only, otherwise you will have to pay the stamp duty if it is produced before the court to get mark it. Court will refer the Dist., commissioner to collect the stamp duty.

Idemnity bond executed other than in stamp paper can be adjudicated to produce as evidence before a court of law.
