Hello - need clarification on claiming stamp duty paid in FY 17-18 under section 80C.
One of the requirement mentioned is that it has to be new house; so would like to understand 'new' means as in new construction and directly purchased from the builder or new means new for the purchaser even though its a resale?
Last year I had purchased a house in an apt. It was a resale. Builder to first owner and from them to me as second owner. Can the stamp duty fee be claimed under 80C under this condition.
