This query is : Open 

Quick Summary
Mr. X bought a flat for £23 lakhs, but the Sale Deed was registered at £9 lakhs. He paid the full amount via LIC loan in 2011 and now wishes to sell for £37 lakhs. The question is whether to use the actual purchase price (£23 lakhs) or the registered Sale Deed value (£9 lakhs) for indexation purposes when calculating long-term capital gains. The consensus is that the Sale Deed value of £9 lakhs should be considered the cost of acquisition for tax purposes.

30 January 2021 Mr X   had purchased a flat for  23 lakhs but the Sale Deed value is only 9 Lakhs. Agreement to Sale shows the Value as 23 lakhs and the money paid through LIC Loan ( Having all the Proof of payment)  in the year 2011.

Now he wants sell the property for 37 lakhs. For Index the cost of the Flat whether 23 lakhs ( Actual cost ) or the Registered Value of Rs. 9 lakhs ( Sale deed value ) to be considered.
