How ever due to litigation i could not execute Permenant Alternate Accomodation Agreement (PAAA)when other owners could do it in 2014.At that time as per  DA stamp duty and registration charges were paid by developer Now I approached my Builder to execute PAAA by paying stamp duty and registration charges .The builder refuse to pay Stamp duty and registration charges saying that his ac with society is closed and He will not pay anything. What stamp duty and registration charges i will have to pay to day on my PAAA execution. Recent Bombay High court order saying NO STAMP DUTY on PAAA if Delopment agreement is stamped and registered is available in my case ?
