In appropriate cases, the bank even give loan upto 80-85% of the value. It will be better to try this option then to use two contradictory documents.

You are creating a contradiction its quiet clear that the loan will be availed on the basis of Agreement for Sale which would be registered by paying proper stamp duty. You may contact personally for an opinion along with the details or contact the executive of the bank. Which state do you belong?
