How are stamp duty and registration calculated in Delhi?

On a ₹75 L home in Delhi, a man pays ₹4,50,000 in stamp duty and ₹75,100 in registration, ₹5,25,100 in all. A woman buying alone pays ₹3,75,100, saving ₹1,50,000. When the purchase reinvests a capital gain, this charge also adds ₹3,48,299 to a Section 54F exemption.

stamp = max(price, circle value) × duty% (+ cess on duty); registration = value × reg% (capped in some states); new house cost C = price + stamp + registration, counted up to ₹10 crore; net consideration N = sale price − transfer costs; LTCG = N − cost (or N − indexed cost); Section 54 (82): exemption = min(LTCG, C); Section 54F (86): exemption = LTCG × C ÷ N, at most LTCG; tax = (LTCG − exemption) × 12.5% (or 20% indexed) × (1 + surcharge) × 1.04

This page uses the same method as the Stamp Duty & Capital Gains Planner (India), which explains each term and assumption in full.
