Five ways to bring the total down
- Register in a woman’s name. A woman buying alone pays 5% stamp duty instead of 6%.
- Compare ready vs under construction. Ready property with a completion certificate has no GST, though you pay more upfront.
- Get developer charges in writing before booking. PLC, parking and club fees raise both GST and stamp duty.
- Negotiate the processing fee. Many banks waive or cap it during offers.
- Keep every payment through the bank and in the developer’s name: it is your cost proof for tax and resale.
TDS on property above ₹50 lakh
If the price is ₹50 lakh or more, the buyer deducts 1% TDS under Section 194-IA and deposits it with Form 26QB. This is part of the price you pay, not an extra cost, but it has to be planned in your payment schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the total cost of buying a flat in Jaipur?
Expect roughly 22% over the base price for an under-construction flat with a home loan, covering GST, stamp duty, cess, registration, MODT, loan fees and developer charges. Ready-to-move flats skip GST.
Is GST payable on a ready-to-move flat?
No. GST applies only to under-construction property. Once the completion or occupancy certificate is issued, sale of the flat does not attract GST.
Does the home loan cover stamp duty and registration?
No. Banks lend against the property price. Stamp duty, registration, MODT and processing fees come from your own funds.
What is PLC in real estate?
Preferential Location Charge: an extra amount for a better floor, view, park facing or corner unit. It is added to the agreement value, so it also raises GST and stamp duty.
How much cash do I need to buy an ₹85 lakh flat?
With a ₹60 lakh loan, about ₹43,92,210 for an under-construction flat in this example, or ₹39,44,710 if it is ready to move. Use the calculator for your exact numbers.
