E-Stamp for Affidavit
Get the correct denomination e-stamp paper for your affidavit in Bangalore — ₹20 to ₹100, SHCIL-authorized, with professional drafting and notarization.
What is E-Stamp for Affidavit?
An e-stamp paper for affidavit is a SHCIL-generated electronic stamp paper of the prescribed value (typically ₹20 to ₹100 in Karnataka) on which an affidavit or sworn statement is printed and executed before a notary public. Under the Karnataka Stamp Act, 1957, all affidavits must be executed on stamp paper of the appropriate denomination to be legally valid. The stamp paper value depends on the type and purpose of the affidavit — general affidavits and self-declarations typically require ₹20 stamp paper, while affidavits related to property matters, court submissions, or financial declarations may require ₹50 to ₹100 stamp paper. E-stamp papers for affidavits carry the same SHCIL security features — unique identification number, online verification, and tamper-proof design — ensuring the document's authenticity and legal standing.

E-Stamp for Affidavit in Bangalore
In Bangalore, the standard stamp paper denomination for general affidavits is ₹20, as prescribed under the Karnataka Stamp Act. This covers the most commonly needed affidavits — name change, date of birth, address proof, income declaration, and lost document declarations. Notary public offices are available near all major court complexes in Bangalore, including the City Civil Court near Mayo Hall, the High Court of Karnataka on Raj Bhavan Road, and at various magistrate courts across the city.
For affidavits submitted to Karnataka state government departments, the department may specify a particular stamp paper value. For instance, affidavits for BBMP property matters may require ₹50 or ₹100 stamp paper. It is always advisable to confirm the required denomination with the receiving authority before purchasing the e-stamp paper.
Sevantay professionals in Bangalore can assist with the complete affidavit process — from determining the correct stamp paper value, procuring the SHCIL e-stamp, drafting the affidavit in the proper format, to notarization. This saves you from making separate visits to an SHCIL center, a typist, and a notary, which is the traditional process in Bangalore.
Pro Tips from Our Experts
- For general affidavits in Karnataka (name change, DOB, address proof), ₹20 stamp paper is legally sufficient. Do not pay for higher denominations unless specifically required by the receiving authority.
- Always confirm the affidavit format with the receiving authority before drafting — courts, passport offices, and different government departments may have specific format requirements.
- Carry your original Aadhaar or Passport to the notary for identity verification — photocopies are not accepted by notaries in Bangalore.
- If you need the affidavit for court submission, check if the court requires it in a specific format or on a specific stamp paper value. District courts and the High Court may have different requirements.
- Get 2–3 extra notarized copies of your affidavit if you plan to submit it to multiple authorities (e.g., Aadhaar, PAN, Passport office) — each authority typically retains the original.
