Sir, I have purchased a property in public auction held by co. op. bank at rs. 6,80,000/- but the government value is rs. 29,10,000/-. Which value should be considered for stamp duty?

Guideline value of Rs.29,10,000

The SRO will demand for a stamp duty as per the guideline value only. You may go for appeal, to the IG of Registration, for the reduction of the stamp duty.
In your case the market value of the property is very much lesser than the guideline value.

It is clear law on said transaction that stamp duty is chargeable on market value or consideration, whichever is more.So, stamp duty will be on 29,10,000/-.

You are bound to pay as per Market value
[Whichever is more: mkt value or consideration]
Ur mkt value seems to be without depreciation granted to reduce sd & ren chg
If building is 40 yers old[ tax by mbc] you have to pay sd only on 14.55 L
If 20 yrs old 20.37L

If you have cross checked the government value with the concerned Sub-Registrar, you have to pay the stamp duty at the government guideline rate though you acquired the property at a lesser price.

I endorse the advised from Mr.Shailesh & Mr.Shroff.
You have to pay the stamp duty on market value as the consideration is much lesser than the market value.
