sir
If civil suit submissions such as plaint, affidavits, are contrary to their own exhibits, does this attracts perjury?

Of course it would be perjury, if you are able to prove that the averments made therein the affidavit are false.
Advocate Bhartesh goyal (Expert) 13 December 2021
Yes, misrepresentation to court by statement under oath amounts to perjury subject to it's proved.

Hello,

Making false statements before the court is perjury. In your case, false/contradictory statements were made about the documents which were filed on record. So as per my opinion, these are contradictions you can take benefits of the statements made.
