Tax20203 sections

This law amends the Rajasthan Stamp Act to impose an extra surcharge on documents subject to stamp duty in the state. The primary purpose is to fund the conservation of cows and their offspring, along with disaster relief during calamities like floods, droughts, and epidemics. The surcharge, which cannot exceed 20 percent of the existing duty, ensures that these specific state welfare initiatives receive dedicated financial support collected directly from legal transactions.
