a)at 9 lac
b)at 9 lac + cost of construction of flat
c)at sale price of flat

22 October 2012 As per prudent business practices and accounting policies, the sale price of flat is the price consideration for sale of flat.

However, as a specific case of purchasing plot from Mr.X who is the owner of property, the entry in books of accounts shall be as per the agreement between two parties.

In such case, sale price should be Rs.9 lakhs + agreed price of Flat as per agreement.
