MP stamp rule 1942State Rules of Madhya Pradesh · 1899

Every other instrument chargeable with duty shall, except as provided by Section 11 or by Rules 10, 12 and 13, be written on paper on which a stamp of the proper value, not bearing the word "hundi" has been engraved or embossed. In the matter of the descriptions of stamps to be used, "counterparts or duplicate" shall follow the rule applicable to the original documents.

7. Provision where single sheet of paper is insufficient –

(1) Where two or more sheets of paper on which stamps are engraved or embossed are used to make up the amount of duty chargeable in respect of any instrument, a portion of such instrument shall be written on each sheet so used.

(2) Where a single sheet of paper, not being paper bearing an impressed hundi-stamp, is insufficient to admit of the entire instrument, being written on the side of the paper which bears the stamp, so much plain water-marked paper available for sale with stamp vendors may be subjointed thereto as may be necessary for the complete writing of such instrument:

Provided that in every such case a substantial part of the instrument shall be written on the sheet which bears the stamp before any part is written on the plain water-marked paper subjoined.

8. Ten Nay Paise, Fifteen Naya Paise and Twenty Naya Paise impressed stamps - The duty on any instrument which is chargeable with a duty of ten naya paise under the Act or of fifteen naya paise under articles 19, 36, 37, 49 and 52 of Schedule I or of twenty five naye paise under articles 5 and 43 of Schedule I-A may be denoted by a coloured impression marked on a skeleton form of such instrument by the Superintendent of Stamps.
