Claim of Stamp duty on Gift deed

Dear Sir/Madam,

My query is as follows:

Mr A & Mr B, Father & Son, purchased a property jointly in Panvel, Maharashtra in 2007 for Rs. 10 Lakhs. Due to old age, Mr A gifted his 50% share in property to Mr B in 2016. They paid Rs. 30000/- as stamp duty & registration charges of Gift deed.

Now, in Jan 2024, Mr B wants to sell this property.
Can he claim this Rs. 30000/- towards registration of gift deed as cost in capital gain calculation?

Kindly guide.
Thanks & Regards,
Suraj

Quick Summary
A property owner gifted their 50% share to their son via a gift deed in 2016, paying £30,000 in stamp duty and registration fees. Now, in 2024, the son wishes to sell the property and is enquiring if the £30,000 paid for the gift deed registration can be claimed as a cost when calculating capital gains tax. The current view suggests these charges may not be allowable as a cost of expenditure for the property.

Who is paid the gift deed amount at the time of gift deed registration...???

Mr B, the son paid the stamp duty & registration charges of gift deed.

On behAlf of whom
@ Mr Suraj,

As per my view,
The charges can't be claim cost of expenditure in the property...
As per deed not possible.
