SINCE COMPLETION CERTIFICATE HAS BEEN RECEIVED, FRESH BOOKINGS AFTER 1ST APRIL WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO GST AS THE SALE WILL BE OF IMMOVABLE PROPERTY NOT LIABLE TO GST.
REG. THE BOOKINGS ALREADY RECEIVED, THE AMOUNTS AS AND WHEN RECEIVED WILL BE LIABLE TO GST. YOU CAN OPT FOR THE OLD RATE OF 12% OR THE NEW RATE OF 5%.
YOU WILL HAVE TO REVERSE PROPORTIONATE IPT ON THE UNSOLD FLATS AS THEY ARE NOT LIABLE TO GST
