GST SALE OF FLAT

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the timing of GST liability for flat sales. While the full deal amount was settled by October 23, 2020, with TDS paid on that date, GST liability arises when payments are received, not necessarily on the final transaction date. The booking of the sale in accounting records should align with the registered agreement for sale, but GST must be accounted for as advances, part payments, or the final payment are received.

24 October 2020 Respected Sir,

The customer paid a sum of Rs 2.57 Crores being advance against deal of the flat during the period from November 19 to March 20 but the customer paid Rs 2.60 Lacs being TDS on 23-10-20 as per our 26-AS to meet out the full amount of the deal of Rs 2.60 Crores.

Can we book the sale in our books as on 23-10-20 (Ay 21-22) because the last transaction has been effected on 23-10-20 on account of TDS as reflected in our 26-AS.

24 October 2020 No, you need to create GST liability when the payment is received.

31 October 2021 Date of booking the sale will be as per registered agreement for sale. While GST liability will be as and when advance/part/last payments received.
