Stamp duty on an increase in every state and union territory

Stamp duty on an increase in authorised capital depends on the state or union territory of the registered office and is paid with Form SH-7, which works it out from MCA’s table for SH-7. Where a state’s own Stamp Act reads differently from that table, the row says so, with its source.

Andaman and Nicobar Islands
  • Nil.
Andhra Pradesh
  • 0.15% of the increase, at least Rs 1,000 and up to Rs 5 lakh. MCA applies the Rs 5 lakh limit to each increase, even when Rs 5 lakh has been paid before.

The union territory’s own Stamp Act (Schedule IA, Article 10) charges 0.5% of the increase, up to Rs 50 lakh, in Dadra and Nagar Haveli and in Daman and Diu alike; MCA’s form still follows its older rows. Source: Gazette of DNH and DD, Extraordinary No. 40, Schedule IA, Article 10.
Delhi
  • 0.15% of the increase, up to Rs 25 lakh. The Delhi High Court held in 2012 that Delhi’s stamp law has no entry charging an increase in authorised capital; MCA’s form still collects the duty above. Source: Delhi High Court, LPA 853/2011, 24 July 2012.

Questions about the cost of increasing authorised capital

How is the fee to increase authorised capital calculated?

The ROC fee is the registration fee on the new capital less the fee on the existing capital, at the rates on the day Form SH-7 is filed. Stamp duty for the state of the registered office comes on top.

Is stamp duty payable on an increase in authorised capital?

The SH-7 form collects it in Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Daman and Diu, Delhi, Goa, Gujarat, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan and Telangana, and nothing elsewhere. The table above gives each rule with its source.

Which state’s stamp duty applies?

The stamp duty of the state or union territory where the company’s registered office is.

Why do some rows show two figures?

Where a state’s own Stamp Act reads differently from MCA’s table, as in Delhi, Maharashtra and Jammu and Kashmir, the row gives both: the duty the SH-7 form collects and what the state’s Act says.

What is the late fee for SH-7?

SH-7 is due within 30 days of the resolution. After that the additional fee is 2.5% of the fee for each month of delay for six months, then 3% a month.

Does a One Person Company or small company pay less?

Yes, up to Rs 50 lakh of authorised capital: its scale starts at Rs 2,000 for the first Rs 10 lakh. A subsidiary of a foreign company is never a small company.

Is there a maximum ROC fee?

The registration fee on any capital is capped at Rs 2.5 crore, which only comes into play above about Rs 332 crore of authorised capital.

Can the calculator fill in my company’s figures?

Yes. Find the company by name or CIN and its authorised capital and state fill in from the public register, which runs about ten weeks behind.

Is this authorised capital fee calculator free?

Yes, with no login. The sums run in your browser, and only a company search reads the public register.
