Why you should avoid under-stamping on ₹100 e-stamp:
Many typist booths and cheap portals print high-rent agreements on a ₹100 stamp paper to cut costs. In Bangalore, major apartment societies (Prestige, Sobha, Brigade), police verification officers, and corporate HRs reject agreements executed on insufficient stamp duty under Section 33 of the Karnataka Stamp Act. EsyDocs ensures your agreement has 100% statutory compliance.
Generated in real-time with a permanent digital timestamp. Under Section 17 of the Karnataka Stamp Act, it is technically and legally impossible to backdate government e-stamp paper.
The date both parties sign. Must match the e-stamp certificate date or follow shortly after. An agreement cannot legally claim to be signed on paper before that paper was printed.
Under the Indian Contract Act, 1872, tenancy can legally take effect with retrospective effect from an earlier date you moved in. 100% compliant for HRA and IT proof.
