Yes. You can affix the adhesive court fee for the RTI application.

P. Venu (Advocate)     20 July 2025

The RTI Fee and the mode of payment may vary as under Section 27 and Section 28, of the RTI Act, 2005 the appropriate Government and the competent authority, respectively, by notification in the Official Gazette, make rules to carry out the provisions of this Act. 

It is not always the case that the payment could be through court fee stamps; You need to persuse the respective rules to ascertain whether payment could be through court fee stamps.

I have never come come across any provision which allows payment of RTI fee through postal stamps.
