LLP Agreement Stamp Duty by State (2026)

How much stamp duty you pay on your LLP Agreement, state by state — what drives the amount, how it's paid, and a quick lookup for your state.

How much is stamp duty on an LLP Agreement?

There's no single national rate. Stamp duty on the LLP Agreement is set by each state's Stamp Act, and in many states it scales with your capital contribution. It typically ranges from a token ₹100–₹500 in some states to a few thousand rupees in others, and is paid on non-judicial stamp paper (or by e-stamping) when the agreement is executed.

State / UTIndicative stamp duty

Indicative figures for guidance only. LLP-Agreement stamp duty is set by each state's Stamp Act and can vary with capital contribution; always confirm the current rate for your state before execution.

What decides the amount

  • Your state. Each state's Stamp Act sets its own rate — the single biggest factor.
  • Your capital contribution. In several states the duty rises with the total contribution of the partners.
  • Type of agreement. The initial LLP Agreement and later supplementary (amendment) agreements may be stamped separately.

How it's paid: the agreement is executed on non-judicial stamp paper of the correct value, or via e-stamping where available, then signed, witnessed and filed with the MCA in Form 3 within 30 days. We handle the stamping and filing as part of your LLP registration.

Stamp duty on the LLP Agreement

The LLP Agreement must be executed on non-judicial stamp paper, and the stamp duty is not a fixed national rate — it depends on two things:

  • Your state — each state sets its own stamp duty, ranging from a token amount to several thousand rupees.
  • Your capital contribution — in many states the duty scales with the amount of contribution.

Because it varies, we confirm the exact stamp duty for your state and contribution before drafting. You can also see it folded into your total on the LLP registration cost calculator.
