The builder will have to pay GST to the govt., if he wants to claim set-off on the ITC (Input Tax Credit) paid on the raw materials used for construction like cement, steel etc. Further, if the purchase value is paid in cheque, the builder should issue tax invoice which shows the GST charged. Since the builder will get full input tax credit, the taxes paid on the raw material should not be part of the cost of the flat/house. As the amount of tax set-off is not visible, this will not be known to the buyer. It is hoped that the market forces will play a role to bring down the cost of flats/houses and the GST benefits will be passed on to the buyers. more
