14 August 2014 Sir it is a FA.

Amt paid to seller is Rs. 27 lac but the guideline value on which regs is done is around 12 lacs, then remng amt to be paid in cash henceforth whether the amt paid in cash is also to be included in cost of land.

14 August 2014 Cash paid to party is to be added as per accounting principle. But you have done regd for less amount, what is the amount shown in sale agreement.

14 August 2014 Show the regd value as cost of land as you have evaded the stamp duty by showing less amount.
If you show actual amount, you will be in trouble.
