Quick Summary
When purchasing a plot for personal use, it should be recorded in your balance sheet at its purchase price. If the purchase price is less than the Stamp Duty Value (SDV) by more than Rs. 50,000, the difference generally needs to be recognised by the buyer. This difference is typically treated as other income for tax calculation purposes, not necessarily for your main P&L account.

Purchase price
Thank you.. if my purchase price is less than SDV and difference is more than Rs.50000/- then do I need to book difference amt as other income in P& L account????
In book of account, it's recorded at purchase price only.
other income concept, u r saying is applicable only for tax calculation purpose
Yes the difference should be recognised by the buyer
