Hello Sir,

As far as I have understood you have given him land on lease and in exchange of it he will be giving you a flat. Under the GST laws even barter exchange is considered as a consideration as Exchange. If any way if you can prove that the deal or the exchange has happened any time before 01st July then GST shall not be payable or else it will be.

Trust this clarifies your query.

Feel free to call / get back in case of further clarifications.

Thanking You.
