Dear Sir, We have purchased 2 Plots from Riico in Year 2002. In the Fy 2017-18 we have sold one plot on agreement and offered the proceeds to tax. Now in the Fy 2021-22 the registry of plot is being done. Now the RIICO is saying that there was a change in partnership firm during the year 2006 so you will be charged with stamp duty which will be collected by sub registrar Rs 18.50 Lacs. My query is can be claim it as revenue expenditure. We can not claim it as tranfer expenses as the proceeds have been offered to tax in the F/y 2017-18 itself.
