Trust deed is to be treated as settlement deed & would be chargeable to stamp duty

October 18, 2012 17204 Views 0 comment Print

It is to be noted that a settlement is an admixture of gift or partition or trust. In law, a family arrangement/settlement is accepted as a transfer of interest in the property in favour of an individual between whom the family arrangement or settlement is so made. Just because a deed/instrument answers the description of a ‘Trust Deed’, it does not cease to be a ‘settlement’ for the purpose of stamp duty, if it answers the description of ‘settlement’ also. As a matter of fact, a deed of trust/trust deed can also be a settlement deed.

I do not agree with the argument that the time-limit under Notification dated 1-3-2011 cannot be made applicable to the claims filed before that date and pending on that date. I also consider the fact that even under the earlier notification, the Deputy Commissioner had power to condone the delay. The delay involved was only 17 days and when a public authority is given any power, he is expected to exercise it unless there is a reason for not exercising such power.
