Re: [IAC#RG] HAPPY NEWS FOR RTI ACTIVISTS

Here are today's rates in Hyderabad:

Face Value                     Sold At                Gross Mark up

Rs. 100.00                    Rs. 150.00                   50%

Rs. 50.00                     Rs. 75.00                     50%

Rs. 20.00                     Rs. 25.00                      25%

Rs. 10.00                     Rs. 15.00                      50%

The rates vary depending on the demand and supply situation.

The only other way is to go to a Sub Registrars office (SRO) and get a stamp paper there.

They sell it at face value .... but the look on the face of the person issuing the stamp paper 

in the SRO is "priceless" ! He/She thinks it is a big favour being done to you...like 

distributing some sweets.

Recently the Stamps & Registration department have allowed "franking" of stamps on ordinary paper. So, if you need any document on stamp paper, just print it on plain paper with a gap of 2 inches on the top. Take it to a authorised Notary and get it franked for the requisite amount. Works well but the numbers are still small

so one needs to travel long distances.

RTI filed 3 years ago revealed that it is the office of the IG Stamps which is lethargic in ordering and releasing stamp papers into the market.

A very good cause to be taken up in each and every state.

Dear Sri Sandeep Guptaji, I beg to disagree with you.  I am in Chennai,  Tamil Nadu.  I am yet to find a Stamp Vendor selling Non-Judicial Stamp Papers at par i.e. for the same value of the Stamp Paper.  Unless you pay extra money, no Stamp Paper will be sold.  I also disagree with Sri Maniramji that the Stamp Vendors are getting only  nominal commission. They get a commission of 10% on the value of the Stamp Paper.  Is it not sufficient for a job, sitting under a roof, selling like a hot cake only on cash and carry basis. They realise their money instantly with a commission of 10% and Stamp Papers are alwaysin demand.   IAC should apply their mind on this how to arrest the corruption on selling Stamp Paper. Notary Publics demanding exhortant amounts for attestation also to be voiced in the Bar Council of India.  Notary Publics are licensed by High Courts and Supreme Court.  So, the Courts should fix the charges for attestation and any Notary Public demanding more than the authorised charges, their Notary Public Licenses should be withdrawn.  The Notary Attestatiion Charges should be exhibited in the Courts in conspecuous places and also at Notary Public Offices.   Will IAC take up this with the Bar Council of India and Registrar of Courts.  With Best Regards, A.S.KALYANAM --- On Thu, 28/2/13, Sandeep gupta <drsandgupta@gmail.com> wrote: From: Sandeep gupta <drsandgupta@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [IAC#RG] HAPPY NEWS FOR RTI ACTIVISTS To: "indiaresists@lists.riseup.net" <indiaresists@lists.riseup.net> Date: Thursday, 28 February, 2013, 10:18 AM I agree with Mr gupta and disagree with Mr mani ram ji. I have never bought stamp papers at price above what has been written on them. The problem is that we don't want to waste time in making complaints. We must also follow up the matter.

Likewise the ration dealers are given a limited   commission. Public Prosecutors in DJ/ADJ Court are given a  monthly salary of Rs.7000/=. The esteemed govts are well aware that one can't survive on the strength of this meager amount and he will have to resort to some illegal/corrupt  Practices. More over the stamp vendors have to pay also commission to Treasury Staff for issuance of stamps. Delhi is a costly city where per capita income as well as cost of living is as high as 3 times of National average. Nothing is going to improve from the said complaint. The Police, which is also corrupt, will milch the vendor and the matter will be tranquilized. > > On Wed, Feb 27, 2013 at 9:49 PM, anand gupta <akgupta2005@yahoo.com> wrote: >> >> 27th February 2013 >> Dear Friend, >> Let me share my experience with you. >> After experiencing the same problem as you, I lodged a complaint with the Police Commissioner. >> There was prompt registration of complaint, and assurance of action, as may be seen from the following excerpts. >> Somehow, I'm not aware of the progress thereafter, and have failed to chase it so far. >> But, you may like to lodge a similar complaint, and then follow it up, more efficiently than me. >>   >> >> >> --- -- Dr. Sandeep Kumar Gupta 1722, Sector 14, Hisar-125001, INDIA Phone: 91-99929-31181 -----Inline Attachment Follows----- Post: "indiaresists@lists.riseup.net" Exit: "indiaresists-unsubscribe@lists.riseup.net" Quit: "https://lists.riseup.net/www/signoff/indiaresists" Help: https://help.riseup.net/en/list-user WWW : http://indiaagainstcorruption.net.in
