Statutory Fee Transparency

Official Government Fees vs. Tout Quotations

Be aware of unauthorized middlemen outside SDM and Sub-Registrar offices who misrepresent statutory timelines and inflate government fees.

✓ Official Government Treasury Fees

₹100 to ₹150

Paid directly through official government treasury challans or portal gateways (e-District Delhi, SARAL Haryana, or UP IGRSUP). Includes solemnisation and certified certificate issuance. Judicial e-stamp affidavits cost ₹10 to ₹50 each.

✕ Unauthorised Agent Quotations

₹10,000 to ₹35,000

Touts outside administrative complexes claim they can "expedite" or "bypass" the 30-day statutory notice. Under Indian law, no SDM or magistrate has the power to waive the 30-day notice under Section 7 of the Special Marriage Act.
