Formula: 1% of annual rent — minimum ₹20
Under the Tamil Nadu Regulation of Rights and Responsibilities of Landlords and Tenants Act, 2017
Example: For ₹12,000/month rent, 11-month term: Annual rent = ₹1,44,000 → Stamp duty = ₹1,440 (1% of annual rent, deposit NOT included)
Security Deposit in Tiruchirappalli
In Tiruchirappalli (Trichy) the 'advance' typically runs 3 to 5 months' rent, with student and faculty housing near NIT Trichy often more reasonable. The Tamil Nadu 2017 Act (Section 18) caps residential deposits at 3 months. The deposit is not included in the stamp-duty calculation. Record the advance amount, return timeline and deduction terms in writing.
Tenant tip: Always get the deposit amount, payment method, and return conditions written into your agreement. RentDraft includes a dedicated security deposit clause with return timeline and deduction rules.
