FACT:: I run proprietary business registered under GST and engaged in the business (service) of renting of warehouses in Bhiwandi, Maharashtra. I have one owned open commercial plot on which I am planning to construct warehouse and subsequently, renting this warehouse to earn rent. I have two options available with me to construct warehouse, First option is to do self-construction by assigning local labours with all material to be purchase by me. Second option is to give contract to some builder (Regd. under GST) to construct the warehouse. In both the options, it will take at-least 6 months to one year to get warehouse constructed and ready for renting out the same.
QUERY:: Will I get GST ITC on consideration (expenses incurred) paid for constructing warehouse? If I get GST ITC then I will utilise this ITC against my GST Liability resulting from rent income earned from this new warehouse.
Dear experts please give your valuable opinion/remark to resolve my above mentioned query. This will also help readers to gain knowledge in field of GST. Many Thanks.
