Can giving away ur property escape SSD? (Change name)100% cannot... even developers who wants to give one or two units to good friends also must sell them at market value. Govt needs all the stamp duty to keep in reserve bank lah... Lol! I had this conversation with my lawyers some years back and clarified the matter...

Stamp Duty Treatment for Gift Cases

3. For any conveyance or transfer operating as gifts, the documents shall be chargeable with stamp duty as if it were a conveyance or transfer on sale. In such instances, for transfer involving immovable properties, the stamp duty will be computed based on the market value of the immovable properties. For transfer involving shares, stamp duty will be computed based on the Net Asset Values of the shares transferred.

4. Guidelines on the values to be declared for stamping of Gift Cases:

4.1 For transfer Involving Immovable Properties:
The market value of the immovable property is to be determined as at the date of execution/signing of the document. The market value of the immovable property is the price that the immovable property might reasonably be expected to fetch in the open market on an arm’s length basis.

...

7. Do I need to obtain a valuation report to determine the market value of the immovable property?

Stamp duty on the document is computed based on the market value of the property. As long as the amount declared for stamping is reflective of the market value, it is not compulsory for you to obtain a valuation report. The market value of an immovable property for the purpose of stamp duty is the price that the property might reasonably be expected to fetch in the open market on an arm’s length basis.
