egrashry.nic.in – Create Online Stamp Papers in Haryana through e-Stamping
The state govt. of Haryana has launched an e-stamping system to bring some major changes in the stamping systems used in the administration. This scheme is aimed for making the stamping procedure transparent and effective and rule out any discrepancies. The portal designed for the e-stamping in Haryana is e-GRAS and the website for this portal is www.egrashry.nic.in. This scheme of e-stamping was introduced from the month of May, 2016 by the Haryana govt. In the initial stage, four districts were selected for this mission namely Panchkula, Gurugram, Sonepat and Faridabad. After the total implementation in those four districts, the e-stamping mechanism will be implemented in all the remaining districts of Haryana with effect from 1st March, 2017.
Some important information about e-stamping procedure in Haryana
After 1st March, 2017, the e-stamping will be the only accepted and mandatory system for all the stamping requirements and no physical stamps will be sold further. At present the physical e-stamps are available through treasury offices located in every district as well as some of the branches of SBI which are authorized for distributions of stamp papers. These physical stamp papers are of non-judicial category. The maximum amount of e-stamps that can be generated through the e-GRAS portal of Haryana is Rs. 10,000. After the demonetization drive by the NDA government, the online stamp paper system of the Haryana Govt. will have multiple online payment gateways where the consumers can use their internet banking or credit / debit cards for transaction of non-judicial stamps. The e-stamps through the e-GRAS portal can be generated first by completing the payment procedure and then by generating the e-stamp.
