This query is : Resolved
Respected Sir,
I have purchase a house in last economic year and got complete legal paper on 29th of march this year with full payment through loan to builder.
Now builder is asking me to pay 58000 RS/- as a Service tax on my house. He got completion certificate on all houses at 31st march as he told us.
So kindly guide me who is liable to pay the service tax.
Builder has not clarified about service tax in legal document and also not intimated us in advance. Our whole society is facing problem now in this matter.
PLEASE HELP US.
THANKS.
DR CHIRAG A NAYAK

As per Notification no. 24/2010 dated 22 June 2010, Service Tax on Under Construction Property w.e.f. 01.07.2010.
Since CC is get at 31st march and before you have made payment, so the builder can ask service tax.
