        Hi everyone,

        I need to submit a ₹100 stamp bond notary income affidavit to a charitable trust for my medications, but I’m really tight on budget. Yesterday, I went to a local notary who charged me ₹110 for a ₹100 stamp paper. They also quoted an extra ₹200 for writing the affidavit and another ₹200 for notarization.

        Since I can’t afford the extra costs, I ended up only buying the stamp paper for ₹110. My plan now is to write the affidavit myself on my mobile, print it on A4 paper, and attach it to the ₹100 stamp paper to avoid paying the ₹200 writing fee.

        My questions are:

        1. Is this method acceptable, or will the attached printout be considered valid?

        2. What is a reasonable fee to pay for notarization under these circumstances?

        I’d really appreciate any advice or insights from those who have been through a similar process. Thanks in advance!

          Answer 1 – Yes, your method is acceptable. But write the title of your document on the stamp paper and pg.1 at the bottom so that it connects to the rest of your document. You can do it by hand.
          Answer 2 – Rs. 200 for notary is standard fees. Your notary has quoted correct rates to you.

                  You can get the document affirmed before any gazetted officer authorized in this behalf. For court filings when a client cannot afford to get notary done, we often have the document affirmed in the Court itself.
