How can I pay stamp duty to the depository for off-market transactions?
You can pay stamp duty for off-market or invocation transactions directly to CDSL using its SEBI-verified valid UPI handle via QR code or UPI ID.
Steps to pay stamp duty:
- Visit www.cdslindia.com → Quick Links → Stamp Duty → Stamp Duty Payment.
- Select Entity Type: Beneficial Owner (BO)
- Enter the following details:
- BOID (Demat Account Number)
- Mobile number
- Email ID
- Stamp duty amount
- Captcha (BO name auto-displays for confirmation).
- Click Proceed for Payment.
- Choose Pay by QR (scan the QR) or Pay by VPA (enter and verify your UPI ID).
- An Order ID will be generated, and a payment request will be sent from CDSL’s valid UPI handle cdsl.stamp.dep@validhdfc.
- Approve the request in your UPI app. On successful payment, confirmation will be shown and emailed to you.
Ensure payment is made only to the CDSL valid/verified UPI handle to avoid delays.
