I bought a flat in a coop housing society in mumbai in 1994, I paid stamp duty, but the stamp duty officer later assessed a higher amount so I landed paying additional stamp duty. Now I plan to sell the flat. Can I use the higher assessed amount to calculate my long term capital gain or do I use the amount shown on my purchase agreement?
