How much is stamp duty in Bangalore in 2026?
5% stamp duty plus 1% registration on the property value. Unlike Maharashtra, Delhi or UP, Karnataka gives no concession for female buyers — the rate is flat. Properties in the ₹21–45 lakh bracket attract a reduced 3% slab. Verify at the Kaveri portal before registration.
Why is M-sand compulsory for construction in Bangalore?
River sand extraction is restricted in Karnataka, so manufactured sand (M-sand/robo sand) at ₹40–55/sqft is the practical default. It's consistent in quality and IS-code compliant for structural work — budget for it rather than chasing river sand through informal channels, which carries both legal and quality risk.
