Frequently Asked Questions
Is this rental agreement valid in Madurai, Tamil Nadu?
Yes. This template follows the Tamil Nadu Stamp Act and Registration Act. Execute it on appropriate Non-Judicial e-Stamp paper purchased from the Tamil Nadu e-district portal to make it legally valid.
What stamp paper value is required for a rental agreement in Madurai?
For agreements up to 11 months, a stamp paper of ₹20 or ₹50 is typically sufficient. For agreements exceeding 1 year, stamp duty is calculated on the annual rent value as per Tamil Nadu Stamp Act rates.
Why is the agreement for 11 months and not 12?
Agreements of 11 months or less do not require mandatory registration at the Sub-Registrar office, saving registration fees. This is standard practice across Tamil Nadu. You can renew after 11 months.
Can I edit the Word (.docx) version?
Yes. Download the Word version, fill in all the blank fields (names, address, rent amount, dates), print on e-Stamp paper and get both parties to sign with two witnesses.
Do I need to register this agreement at the Sub-Registrar office?
For 11-month agreements, registration is optional but recommended. For agreements exceeding 1 year, registration is mandatory under Section 17 of the Registration Act, 1908. The Sub-Registrar office in Madurai is located at Anna Nagar.
