GST UPDATE ON NOTIFICATION ISSUED FOR GST RATE ON REAL ESTATE SECTOR W.E.F. 01.04.2019 PART-3
 
In the earlier update, we had discussed the provisions contained in Annexure I for computation of input tax credit on inputs and input services attributable to the construction of residential portion in a Real Estate Project (REP) in case of ongoing project which has time of supply on or after 01.04.2019. In the present update, we explain the provision with the help of an illustration.

The calculation is self explanatory as per the provisions discussed in our earlier update. However, one point that is worth observing is that paragraph 3 of the notification starts with non-obstante clause wherein it overrides the provisions contained in paragraph no. 2 of the notification. The final computation as per paragraph no. 2 of the notification is mentioned at serial no. 28 of the table. However, the situations prescribed at paragraph no. 3(i) and 3(ii) are also illustrated in the above example. The value of Tx in situation 3(i) is mentioned at serial no. 37 of the table while that covered by situation 3(ii) is mentioned at serial no. 46 of the table. If we discuss the computation covering situation no. 3(i) wherein the percentage invoicing (60%) is more than percentage completion (20%), it is found that the % of invoicing is to be taken as (20%+25%)= 45%. This will result in re-computation of F3 and Tx to be -0.18 Crores meaning that the developer promoter is eligible to avail the credit of 18 Lakhs in situation no. 3(i). Similarly, F3 is individually re-computed in situation 3(ii) with Tx as -0.10 Crores, it means that the developer promoter is eligible to avail the credit of Rs. 10 Lakhs in situation no. 3(ii). Now, the illustration of the notification assumes that the situation 3(i) and 3(ii) are mutually exclusive but it is possible that the developer is covered by both the situations. Accordingly, it is not clear as to the situation that is to have precedence while computing the value of Tx. Moreover, it is also not suggested that which Tx is to be considered finally by the developer promoter if he is covered by both situations 3(i) and 3(ii). The revenue authorities will definitely insist for the Tx with the lowest value as in the present case, the Tx indicates availment of credit by the developer promoter whereas the assessee will chose the Tx with highest value. A suitable clarification is expected by the government so that unnecessary dispute is avoided in future.
