items mentioned at serial number 4 and 5 is no applicable on re-sale.

V R SHROFF (Expert) 11 December 2014
Transfer fee of Flat is negotiable. either 50-50 % by seller/ purchaser or 10% by purchaser is common practice, to be decided at the time of dealing..

stamp duty regn other exp by purchaser only.
