What is the consequence of Understamping of Loan Agreements

R.R. KRISHNAA (Legal Manager) 29 January 2010

It follows no consequences. It is not mandatory to properly stamp the loan agreement for movable properties. The deficiency in stamps can be rectified by paying the deficit amount along with penalty.

S.Karthick (Student) 29 January 2010

1.what is the Penalty if so?

2.If the document is not at all stamped what will be the consequences ?

Pls let me know.

R.R. KRISHNAA (Legal Manager) 29 January 2010

Amount of penalty differs from state to state.

If the document is not at all stamped, even then penalty can be levied later.

Dear S Karthik,

If in case the Loan Agreement is not stamped the deficiency of stamp can be cured subsequently as well.
