Low Cost constrution

A developer is constructing flats consisting of 20 residential units. Each residential units costs Rs. 15-18 Lakhs. Advance payments are obtained before completion. Coming in ST net from 01.07.2010? Under Construction.....

Heard that there is an exemptions for low cost housing worth less than 20 Lakhs. But I cant find any notification as such. Read these in the following website.

Is the developer exempted from Service tax or not? Please advice

20 lacs limit is per developer per year, not on unit price.
