hello all,

My sister (living abroad) bought a villa for 50lacs in hyderabad. The builder is asking her to pay VAT(@4%)and ServTax(@4.12%) on the "Cost of Construction=41 lacs" component. Is this correct???

So the point is, I was reading the site/forum and found few articles relating to the exemption given to homebuyers in terms of ServTax by the Govt of India. Is this still applicable as on Jan 2009, I quote the following for easy reference:

1. "https://www.caclubindia.com/news/2007/9/service_tax_relief_for_home_buyers.asp"

2. "https://www.caclubindia.com/news/2007/9/home_buyers_get_service_tax_waiver_.asp"

From these above articles I understand that she doesn't have to pay ServTax as demanded by the builder.

Please enlighten me on the issue and dont hesitate to ask me if u need any clarifications from my end.

Also can anybody tell the Circular Number issued on 23Aug,2007 regarding the same.So that it would be handy to have a printout and show the builder if needed.

I found one link pertaining to the above, i really dont know if it matters to the case above or not. Anyways all u learned people go thru and let me know where is it mentioned??
