479 views 8 replies

I have purchased a flat (agreement date is after 01/04/2019)a 900 sqft and price 43.5 Lakh excluding GSt. Project is ongoing project and builder has not opted for previous rate( i.e 8%,12%). Hence he should be charging only 1 % GST but he is demanding 5%.

Please suggest

5% kaise charge karega? Affordable housing me mera fall kar raha hai jiska rate 1% hona chahiye. Project ongoing hai aur Usne option opt nai kiya hai earlier scheme ka...

I guess you are not update on GST on real estate

Yes you are correct But .... can you provide few explanation.

Whether the project is in metropolitan city ?????. If the answer is yes then Promotor is required to charge 5% GST because :
As 900 Sq.feet is equal to 83 Sq mtr. & the condition to charge 1% is that for metropolitan city the carpet area should not be more then 60 Sg.Mtr.

Note : Metropolitan cities are : Bengaluru,Chennai,Delhi NCR (Limited to Delhi,Noida, Ghaziabad, Gurgaon, Faridabad), Hyderabad, Kolkata & Mumbai (whole of MMR)

It's in Ranchi. Hence rate should be 1%. right??

What should i do now?

Is there any remady available under GST provision. ???

Where should i complain ?

Yes if it is in Ranchi & it's below 45 Lacs , the Promotor is required to charge GST @ 1% & Not 5%
