Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether a residential property builder needs GST registration when selling their own constructed property for ₹60 Lakhs after obtaining the completion certificate. The consensus is that if properties are sold only after receiving the completion certificate, no GST registration is required as this is considered an exempt supply. However, if any token money is received during the booking or construction stage, GST becomes applicable, and registration is mandatory.

Is he selling the Properties only after receiving the Completion Certificate ( CC ) / Occupation Certificate ( OC ) ???
Yes . selling property after receiving completion certificate.
If that is so then the Builder is not required to take Registration under GST as he is dealing in purely exempt supply ( NO SUPPLY ). As per Para 5 of SCHEDULE III of the CGST Act 2017, "Sale of Land and subject to Para 5 clause (b) of Schedule II, Sale of Building", is neither treated as Supply of Goods or Services.

As per the Provision of Section 23(1) clause (a) of the CGST Act 2017, Persons who are dealing in EXCLUSIVE SUPPLY OF EXEMPTED GOODS OR SERVICES OR BOTH, then he is not liable to take registration under GST.

But kindly note that if he receives any token money during the Booking stage ( construction stage ), then GST would be applicable Sir and he will be liable to take registration under GST.
