Sale value - sale deed or AIS

I sold a property for 50 lakhs, buyer paid stamp duty on 50 lakhs as per sale deed.

But I see my AIS reflecting the same transaction valued at 1 Cr.

What should I report in ITR2? If I report 50 lakhs to calculate CG, worried system might trigger a notice.

Quick Summary
This discussion addresses a common confusion regarding property sale value reporting in Income Tax Returns (ITR). The user sold a property for 50 lakhs, with the buyer paying stamp duty on this amount as per the sale deed. However, their Annual Information Statement (AIS) reflects the transaction at 1 crore. The core question is whether to report the actual sale value (50 lakhs) or the higher value shown in AIS (1 crore) for capital gains calculation in ITR2, to prevent potential tax notices.

If the transaction value is 50 lakhs, how come it is reported as 1 Cr. in AIS? Need to check the circle rate of the property as reported by Sub-Registrar.

Office clerk says circle rate is 1C, but then how did the buyer manage sub registrar to pay stamp duty on 50 L, I don't know. If the circle rate is 1C, he should have paid stamp duty on 1C even though transaction value is 50L.

Sub registrar would have initiated action for lack of stamp duty; or he may initiate it at later stage. But for income tax purpose you have to consider the value as 1 Cr only; otherwise bound to get notice.
