11 November 2025 I have taken a CC road construction work from the Panchayat Raj Department.
The work is for a public road (used by general public) under Government work order.

Kindly clarify —
👉 Whether GST is applicable on this work or it is exempted under any notification?
👉 If applicable, what is the correct GST rate (12% or 18%)?
👉 Please mention the relevant notification number or Circular reference also.

Thank you.

11 November 2025 Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax (Rate) – This is the key notification that governs the exemption for construction work provided to the Government.

Entry No. 3 (vii) under this notification mentions that services provided by contractors to the Government for road construction are exempt.

GST may be exempted for the road construction work you are doing under the Panchayat Raj Department, but you should verify the specific conditions laid out in the above-mentioned notification.
