What the calculator covers

The page is deliberately narrow: it handles share certificate issuance and share transfer instruments instead of trying to cover every securities or state stamp question.

  • SH-1 share issue and SH-4 share transfer workflows.
  • Physical and demat fact patterns where the calculator has a clear route.
  • Duty basis, challan remark, payer view and practical deadline note.

Where to verify

Stamp duty can turn on the instrument, state payment system, transaction form and whether securities are held physically or through a depository.

  • Check state e-stamping or SHCIL route before paying.
  • Confirm consideration, market value and execution date before finalising duty.
  • For group transfers, gifts or restructurings, review the instrument separately.

Before records update

Use the output to prepare the challan note and internal checklist, then match the stamped instrument with the company records.

  • Keep SH-1, SH-4, board approval, share register and payment proof together.
  • Do not update registers only from the calculator result if the instrument is incomplete.
  • For demat cases, reconcile company records with depository or RTA workflow.
