Service tax on flat -housing construction

it should be on payment after july..as at that time service tax was payable on receipt basis so he would have paid service tax on payment already made

Hi All,

I am in a similar situation. I booked a flat before July/2010 in a new project. I have paid a few installments before July/2010 and several regular installments after July/2010. The builder is asking for service tax on installments paid after July/2010.

The following article suggests it will not be applicable hence I am confused:

Thanks in advance for helping.

Please can someone respond to my query above?

Please note that as the construction of the said building was not completed, thus you are liable to pay Service Tax, If in case the construction is complete and you purchase a ready flat, then in that case Service Tax is not applicable, please refer to the following Article & other article about VAT on the said site.
