The PITB e-stamping is a step towards transparent revenue generation through technology and eliminating the likelihood of financial theft through an efficient and responsible system.

It has saved the citizen from fraud, forgery, the agent mafia, long lines at the tax office and the banks, as the time it takes to receive stamps has been reduced from three days to 15 minutes, as is now the case in the 36 districts of the entire Punjab and 144 tehsils.

The e-stamp system has replaced the 117-year-old stamp system introduced to the subcontinent under colonial rule in 1899. The newly introduced system is online and anyone looking to purchase high quality stationery can access the system through a simple internet connection.

The value of the stamp duty is calculated based on the data provided by the buyer (area, location, covered area, commercial / residential area, etc.) and DC classification tables built into the system.

The names of the buyer, seller, and person from whom stamps are purchased are entered into the system along with their CNIC numbers. The system has enabled the common man to check the authenticity and value of the e-stamp paper by sending the built-in number to 8100 via SMS.

Based on the above data, the Challan Form 32-A is now created and the buyer of the notepaper can contact the nearest branch in the specified bank.

This type of challenge, 32-A, can be done by the citizens or by the bank or sub-registry office. Once the stamp duty is paid, the bank clerk prints the e-stamp paper on specially designed paper in a legal format.

When used, this stamp paper is offered to the sub-registrar / housing association / government / land developer. These authorities have limited access to the e-stamp database where they can browse e-stamp paper, eliminating the use of counterfeit stamps.

If stamp paper is used, these authorities notify the system and the same entry in the database will be deleted, limiting the reuse of e-stamp paper.
