The provision relating to service tax in the category Construction of Complex Service relates to construction of residential complex. A complex should comprise ofmore than 12 residential units located either in a single building or in more than 1 building. Hence if your company had appointed a contractor to build residential houses within a premises in which the aggregate number of residntial unit is more than 12, service tax provision will apply. However pls note that if a builder /promoter / developer or any other person constructs such complex on its own then the ST provision will not apply.
Yes, it attracts service tax but only if house has more then 12residential units
will it attract ST even if we buld 12 houses in a year at different places?
No, it will not attract ST
when company XYZ make guest house(more that 12 units) for emplyees and pay full service tax to the trunkey contructor who build on behalf of the company XYZ.My question is that-"Can the Company XYZ avail input tax credit for the service tax it paid to the trunkey contructor". please reply. regards.

Dear Sir

A builder is constructing row houses and getting the registry on the plot area. Is service tax applicable on the indvidual or the builder on the constructed property?

yes input service tax can be claimed

the service tax will be collected from the buyers by the builder of the property. responsibility lies with the property developer who is making the sale

the service tax will be collected from the buyers by the builder of the property. responsibility lies with the property developer who is making the sale

The answer will depend on the nature of output service is rendered. Please let me know what is the nature of output service?
