Hi Bala,

 

Hope you are doing well !!

 

Yes, you are liable to pay GST as the booking is done before receiving OC.

 

The GST is applicable, when the complex, building or flat, is sold before its completion and the consideration, whether in full or in part, is received before its completion. So, even if you book a flat, where the builder asks you to pay just one per cent or a very nominal payment and the balance after possession, you will still have to pay the GST on the full amount. Conversely, if the entire sale consideration is paid after the building is completed, there is no GST liability.

Hi

GST shall be applicable since the flat was booked before OC was received. Booking date is the relevant date here.

Hi

 

GST will be applicable since you have booked prior to OC.

Hi,

- If the entire amount of consideration is paid after getting OC then GST is not applicable. In your case, you paid 10% amount before getting OC therefore you are liable to pay GST on full amount.

But you have paid advance before that so GST will be applicable on it, however if you had paid amount after OC date no GST would have been applicable.

Hope you find the information helpful if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement.

Thank you
