Hi,

Only builder can tell you the justification for these charges. Alternatively, you can refer the original agreement entered into with the buyer.

GST is applicable in case of all the properties which got completion certificate post 1 July 2017. GST is applicable on the payment made post 1.7.2017.

Please feel free to call/ revert in case you need more clarity.

Thanks and regards

Hi

You should check the agreement between you and the builder so as to know who shall bear these charges.

Regarding GST, if the property was under construction during GST implementation in July 2017, GST shall be applicable and shall have to be paid by you.
