Stamp Duty Controversy: High-Stakes Land Deal in Pune

The Maharashtra State Chief Controlling Revenue Authority has denied an appeal by Amadea Enterprises LLP, mandating a nearly Rs 21 crore stamp duty payment for a high-value land deal in Pune. The transaction, involving Parth Pawar's firm, faced scrutiny for an erroneous stamp duty waiver claimed under a state policy.

The Maharashtra State Chief Controlling Revenue Authority has rejected the appeal by Amadea Enterprises LLP to avoid paying nearly Rs 21 crore in stamp duty and penalty for a contentious land deal in Pune's Mundhwa.

On April 28, 2026, Chief Controlling Revenue Authority Ravindra Binwade upheld an earlier decision by the Joint District Registrar, confirming the firm's tax liability following a 2025 sale deed.

The involvement of political ties, improper duty waivers, and subsequent legal procedures add layers to this complex real estate issue, drawing attention to the procedural fairness and the broader implications for state policy.
