E-Stamping Made Mandatory in Haryana

E-stamping will become mandatory in Haryana from March 1, 2017.

Earlier, e-stamping was made mandatory only in four districts — Gurugram, Faridabad, Sonepat and Panchkula.

Any citizen could generate stamp paper online through the e-stamping system, which is available on the website.

All other offices and agencies like Treasury office, sub-Treasury office and authorised branches of State Bank of India, would stop selling non-judicial stamp papers.

Stamp vendors will generate non-judicial stamp paper up to Rs. 10,000 per person through e-stamping module only.

It is a step taken to provide a hassle-free, citizen-centric and secure way to make payment of non-judicial stamp duty.

The system was implemented in two parts, including making the payment for stamp papers in the relevant receipts head, and generating e-stamp paper through e-stamping portal after online confirmation of payment.

Any depositor could make payment for generation of e-stamp paper by using payment aggregator service on Electronic Government Receipt Accounting System (E-GRAS) portal or manual payment on E-GRAS portal.
