Stamp duty is a State subject which differs from a State to another.

In Delhi stamp duty for gift deed is same as Conveyance Deed.

Findout from local sub-registrar / lawyer.

The rate is flexible state wife. The stamp duty and registration fee on gift deed of immovable property is a stamp duty of 5% on the market value of the property + surcharge + cess and 1% registration fee.
