543 votes

Sir
In the matter of probate the court fees depend upon the valuation of the property as it is decide by the department. But the maximum court fees is Rs. 50000.
If the property is of high value you may ask to deposit the maximum court fees so that time be saved.
Thanks

The court may impose a percentage of assets as a fee to issue a probate. In Maharashtra, for example, a court fee of Rs 25 is payable for assets less than Rs 50,000; 4% for assets between Rs 50,000-2 lakh, and 7.5% for assets over Rs 2 lakh. There is a ceiling of RS 75,000.

The Stamp duty depends upon the Government department which they levied upon the valuation of the property and not on any other particular characteristics. Its better to please go and meet the authority as it is levied by them, but there is also a subject to a maximum limit to Rs 50,000/-.
