Online payment of stamp duties

The Maharashtra Stamp Authority (Office of Inspector General of Registration and Controller of Stamps) have decided vide their Order dated 15th March 2014 that maximum limit for paying stamp duty by franking shall be Rs.5,000/- for a single document. 

Which means if you want to frank any document with value of stamps on it, and if the value of stamps to be franked is more than Rs.5,000/- then it cannot be franked either at the government stamp office or authorised user like banks etc. or authorised vendor like stamp agents etc. 

Instead government has introduced system of online payment of stamps which is at the following website i.e. 

https://gras.mahakosh.gov.in/echallan/

The site if user driven and there is facility for making payments online i.e. e-payment through internet banking system and also across the bank counter. The above site also gives user guides/ faqs.
