Consideration of Sale of Property whose DLC rate is more and Market rate is less

Tax queries 189 views 1 replies

First of all, Namaskar and Happy Diwali to Respected Learned Members of CAClubIndia Community

Sir, there is a small query -

Suppose, value of a shop calculated on Circle/DLC rate is 50 L but Market rate is 35 L [30% less than Circle/DLC rate]

If the property is sold at Market rate of 35 L and Sale Deed is registered on this consideration amount, then it becomes much less than Circle/DLC rate.

It is heard that to avoid any tax inquiry, consideration amount should at least be equal to Circle/DLC rate.

So, query is - What can be the solution for consideration of sale of property whose Circle/DLC rate is more and Market rate is less?

It is highly appreciated if the Respected Learned Members of CAClubIndia Community can put some light on the matter.

Thanks.

Hi @ marthy,

You need to buy stamp as per circle rate i.e 50L but you can pursue your transaction for 35L.

As per Sec 50C , your sale value will be considered as 50 L. 

For buyer, diff between circle rate and purchase price is treated as "Income from Other sources". i.e 15 L.
