Apartment purchased in May 2010, ready-to-occupy. Builder insists service tax and vat applicable. completion certificate and OC already in place since feb 2010. Full payment for property done. Is service tax and vat applicable? What other tax is applicable? The property is in chennai.

if the cc was obtained before the possession of the flat. then the flat purchaser are not bound to pay the service tax and vat to the builder.
you may ask for refund, if you have paid to the builder. have the builder gave you the proof that the said amount was deposited by him with the concerned authorities?????
you need to serve a legal notice to the builder asking for refund of the charges paid by you. if the builder fails to pay, then you may approach consumer forum.
