At cost or net realisable value which is lower.

Stock in trade means the stock which is purchased in the business for resale purposes. Inventory valuations for it. 

Sir if a owner of jewelery shop. introduce his personal gold of rs 10 lac ( purchase price) and ( fair market price is 50 lac) in his sole proprietor firm as a stock in trade at which value it is recorded?
thanks in advance

10 lacs. The inventory valuations are same for sole proprietorship.
