Gst on property purchased

Hello All,

I have purchased a 1 BHK flat and my flat registration already done, now bulider is asking me to pay Service tax and VAT amount before 1st July as GST going to apply, but my registration done before 1st jully and builder is liable to pay ST & VAT to Govt. so is it right to pay new tax amount to builder or i have gt charged as per old ST & VAT Rate.

Please Hel me to understand these......

Flat already registered means eirher you have been subjected to Service Tax or if the builder has obtained Completion/Occupancy Certificate no service tax should be charged legally.

VAT liability depends on which state you have bought the property in.
If you have already purchased the flat then I am assuming you have paid the entire consideration amount to the builder. Only taxes are left to be paid. In your case the contract has been entered prior to GST, payment has been made prior to GST and also supply has been done prior to GST. Hence you are liable to pay Service Tax and VAT and not GST even if you pay after 1st July 2017. But take a second opinion also.

Hi 

Thanks for details i have not pay complete amount Loan amount is still payable to Builder by bank, as loan procedures still not completed. but disbursment procedure will complete before jully only.

If loan done and bank paid amount to builder still the same is applicable ?

Yes because the procedure would be over before July. Hence the builder would receive consideration before July. Since GST is applicable not before July it cannot be taxed under GST.

A RESIDENTIAL FLAT WAS PURCHASED AND AGREEMENT WAS REGISTERED IN PRE-GST REGIME.

AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION, 1% VAT WAS PAID ON ENTIRE AGREEMENT VALUE AND 

SERVICE TAX WAS ALSO PAID ON ALL PAYMENTS MADE UPTO REGISTRATION DATE..

NO PAYMENT WAS MADE IN POST-GST PERIOD.

NOW THE BUILDER HAS RECEIVED O.C.

AND LAST INSTALLMENT IS PENDING TO BE PAID.

IS GST APPLICABLE ON THIS LAST INSTALLMENT WHEN VAT HAS ALREADY BEEN PAID ON FULL AGREEMENT VALUE AND O.C. HAS BEEN RECEIVED?
