Dear Professional 

There are two type of prices of books one printed price which has printed on a book and second actual price (after deducted discount) whatever we actual pay against purchase of books. many online vendor offering after deducted discount called  actual price which has to be paid for buying the books. When the library purchase the books it has to be paid the regular price (actual price) to the vendor 

Dear Sri Lambodara Parabhoi,
Thanks for your post.
I am a bit confused as I could not make out what you have meant as "WEBSITE PRICE".Is it the price offered by (a) online bookstores or (b)the price mentioned in the publishers' websites? If you have meant the second, they are the actual price of the book (may be in different currency like US Dollar; British Pound Sterling,Euro etc.
When we purchase books locally we pay in Indian Currency that is Rupee. Booksellers provide discount and the net price is the discounted price of the book.
I believe this is what you have mentioned as "REGULAR PRICE". Such "REGULAR PRICE"s are assigned after converting the cost in foreign currencies in Indian Rupees on the basis of prevailing Foreign Currency Conversion Rates
In case you have meant the price offered by Online bookstores (like Amazon.in, Infibeam.com or Flipkart.com etc. etc.)they are not necessarily the actual price. Often they are found to be higher or lower than the actual price of the book.Even such prices often differ from one online bookstore to another.

The most viable way is to check the ACTUAL PRICE from the PUBLISHERS" WEBSITES". In case the price is in Foreign currency, convert it in Indian Rupees using the prevailing conversion rate and then add discount offered by local vendors and compare it with prices offered by Online bookstores and now take your decision where to buy from.

Sincerely,

Siddhartha S. Ray

Thank you Sir. Yes sir  second one, some vendor charges the regular price of the book. Which is found in the website where as there is other  price like website price but the website price is less than the Regular price.

thanks,

MRP is the price which is printed on the book and mostly book sellers offer discount on the MRP to boost the sales and to win customers.. Similarly the website which deals in book sells the books to the customer after making discount like the local seller .. in some cases the discount is higher ... the price offer by online seller can be termed as WEBSITE PRICE

You have to charge the book on your permanent record i.e. Accession Register you need to charge the book by entering both the prices the MRP and the price after discount in your case it is website price . So that in case you have to replace the book in future ... Book is lost in case

Price proof of a book is Publisher's latest Catalog. website price has no authenticity. so the Real Price of a book is that provided by Publisher in their Publisher's catalog.
