In short
Stamp duty is not computed for Andhra Pradesh: its rate pages cannot be read from outside India. Across the RBI's 18 cities, house prices rose +3.6% over a year (Q1:2026-27 (April-June 2026)). A bank lends at most 80% of a ₹50 lakh home (RBI); the average rate on new housing loans was 7.68% in September 2026.

Andhra Pradesh in context
Where Payotte reads the rates, the duty on a ₹50 lakh home runs from ₹2,50,000 in Uttarakhand (5% of the price) to ₹5,00,000 in Puducherry (10%): seven states and union territories out of 36, which leaves Andhra Pradesh off that scale.
On the simplified outline Payotte draws, Andhra Pradesh spans about 855 km east to west and 725 km north to south. Of its covered cities, the two most distant, Vijayawada and Visakhapatnam, are 300 km apart as the crow flies. The nearest of the seven states and union territories whose duty Payotte reads is Maharashtra, about 535 km from the centre of Andhra Pradesh, at 5% of the Annual Statement of Rates (ready reckoner): a point of comparison, not Andhra Pradesh's rate.
Payotte covers two cities in this state: Vijayawada and Visakhapatnam. None of them has a RESIDEX figure, so the price movement here can only be read from the RBI's index of 18 cities (+3.6%).
