As per the agency report, citing resident suburban collector Satish Bagal, Shah Rukh Khan and his wife Gauri Khan converted the lease of the house to a“class 1 complete ownership” category.

During this lease conversion, the couple paid the state government a premium over the amount due. After the discovery of the calculation error, the couple filed an application with the revenue authority of the state to ask for a refund which was sanctioned earlier this week, according to Bagal, reported the news agency.

Shah Rukh Khan allegedly paid more than ₹25 crore in premiums, but the official did not confirm the figure as per the report.
