Stamp duty and registration fees are government charges — same regardless of how you draft your agreement.

Standard format: Lease Agreement (not Leave & License) — same as Bangalore
Stamp duty: 1% of annual rent (deposit NOT included)
Registration: Optional for ≤11 months, recommended for legal protection
E-stamping: Available via Kaveri Online / SHCIL
Deposits noticeably lower than Bangalore — usually negotiable

Stamp Duty in Mysore

Formula: 1% of annual rent value — minimum ₹20

Under the Karnataka Rent Control Act, 2001

Example: For ₹12,000/month rent: Annual rent = ₹1,44,000 → Stamp duty = ₹1,440 (1% of annual rent, deposit NOT included)

Security Deposit in Mysore

Security deposits in Mysore (Mysuru) are far more reasonable than in Bangalore — typically 3-6 months' rent, and often negotiable, rather than Bangalore's notorious 10-month ask. There is no strictly enforced state cap currently, but the Model Tenancy Act (2021) recommends a maximum of 2 months for residential properties. As in the rest of Karnataka, the deposit is NOT included in the stamp duty calculation. Always record the exact deposit, return timeline, and deduction conditions in your agreement.

Tenant tip: Always get the deposit amount, payment method, and return conditions written into your agreement. RentDraft includes a dedicated security deposit clause with return timeline and deduction rules.

  1. 1Draft your rent agreement (use RentDraft to generate in 2 minutes)

  3. 3For ≤11 months: Get the agreement notarized (optional but recommended) — no registration needed
  4. 4For >11 months: Both landlord and tenant visit the nearest Sub-Registrar office in Mysuru with original IDs, agreement, and 2 passport-size photos each
  5. 5Pay the registration fee (flat ₹500 + stamp duty) — only required for agreements over 11 months
  6. 6Collect the registered copy within 3-5 working days

E-Stamping in Karnataka

Kaveri Online (IGR Karnataka)Visit Portal

Visit Karnataka IGR (Kaveri) portal → Register/Login → Select 'e-Stamp' → Enter stamp duty amount → Pay online → Download e-stamp certificate. SHCIL is the authorized issuing agency. You can also buy from authorized stamp vendors or banks near any Sub-Registrar office.

Police Verification in Mysore

Tenant police verification is recommended in Mysore. Visit your nearest police station with a copy of the rent agreement, the tenant's Aadhaar, and passport-size photos. Apartment complexes and gated communities around the Hebbal Industrial Area IT belt commonly require it within 15 days of moving in.

Local Tips for Renting in Mysore

Deposits are far gentler than Bangalore — 3-6 months is common and often negotiable, versus Bangalore's 10-month norm
Hebbal Industrial Area is Mysuru's IT belt (Infosys and others); Vijayanagar, Kuvempunagar, Gokulam and Saraswathipuram are the popular residential picks
Mysuru's Cauvery/KRS water supply is generally more reliable than Bangalore's — but still confirm the source and any borewell dependence
Get painting/restoration terms in writing — the same exit-deduction habits seen in Bangalore apply here too
Verify the khata and that property tax (MCC) is paid up to date before signing

Common Traps to Avoid in Mysore

Painting charges trap: landlords may deduct for 'painting' regardless of wall condition. Pre-agree the terms in your agreement.
Deposit refund delays: legally due within 30 days of vacating. Send a written demand if delayed.
Borewell/tanker water costs passed to the tenant without prior agreement. Clarify the water arrangement upfront.

3Get it notarized for added legal weight (registration optional for ≤11 months)
4Complete police verification as required

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a rent agreement cost in Mysore?
A traditional rent agreement in Mysore costs ₹1,500–4,000 (stamp paper + documentation). With RentDraft, generate a legally formatted agreement starting at ₹99 — with Karnataka-specific clauses like khata and property tax included. Stamp duty (1% of annual rent) and registration fees (flat ₹500, only for >11 months) are separate government charges.
Is rent agreement registration mandatory in Mysore?
No — registration is optional for agreements of 11 months or less under the Registration Act, the same as Bangalore. It is still recommended, because an unregistered agreement can't be used as primary evidence in court. For agreements over 11 months, registration is mandatory at a Mysuru Sub-Registrar office.
What is the stamp duty on a rent agreement in Mysore?
Karnataka charges 1% of the total annual rent, minimum ₹20, and the security deposit is NOT included. Example: ₹12,000/month → annual rent ₹1,44,000 → stamp duty ₹1,440. You can buy e-stamp paper online via Kaveri Online or SHCIL.
Can I make a rent agreement online in Mysore?
Yes. Use RentDraft to generate a Karnataka-specific rent agreement for Mysore in under 2 minutes. Add the clauses relevant to you (pet, maintenance, parking), download the instant PDF, print on e-stamp paper, and optionally notarize or register.
Are deposits in Mysore lower than in Bangalore?
Generally yes. Mysore deposits commonly run 3-6 months and are often negotiable, whereas Bangalore landlords routinely ask 10 months in IT corridors. There's no strictly enforced state cap, but the Model Tenancy Act 2021 recommends 2 months. A clear agreement with deposit return conditions protects you either way.
I'm joining Infosys in Mysore — what should I know about rent agreements?
The Hebbal Industrial Area is Mysuru's main IT belt. Expect deposits of around 3-6 months, an 11-month agreement (no mandatory registration), and a possible police-verification request from your apartment complex. RentDraft generates a Karnataka-specific agreement with the clauses these communities expect, ready in 2 minutes.
