13 May 2008 Whether Service Tax will be applicable on resenditial apartments constructed by society for its members?

19 May 2008 Taxability


65(105)(ZZQ)- to any person, by 46[any other person],
Explanation
(a) In a case where the builder, promoter, developer or any such person builds a residential complex, having more than 12 residential units, by engaging a contractor for construction of the said residential complex, the contractor in his capacity as a taxable service provider (to the builder/promoter/developer/any such person) shall be liable to pay service tax on the gross amount charged for the construction services under ‘construction of complex’ service [section 65(105)(zzzh)].
(b) If no other person is engaged for construction work and the builder/promoter/developer/any such person undertakes construction work on his own without engaging the services of any other person, then in such cases,—
(i) service provider and service recipient relationship does not exist,
(ii) services provided are in the nature of self-supply of services.
Hence, in the absence of service provider and service recipient relationship and the services provided are in the nature of self-supply of services, the question of providing taxable service to any person by any other person does not arise.
