Quick Summary
This discussion explores the Goods and Services Tax (GST) implications when an under construction property is resold within a year, before the Occupancy Certificate (OC) is received. While GST typically applies to new property sales, the resale of an under construction property by an individual may not always fall under GST if it's considered a transfer of personal assets rather than a business activity. However, if the sale consideration is received before the completion certificate, GST might still be applicable.

Another view: GST applies to supplies (of goods or services) made in course of furtherance of business and transfer of personal assets or rights does not all within ambit of GST. So if an under constriction property is transferred through resale by an individual, it may not be liable for GST.

GST applicable on under construction property since sale consideration is received before completion certificate.
