Input tax credit attributable to construction of residential portion in a real estate project (REP) other than residential real estate project (RREP), which has time of supply on or after 1st April, 2019, shall be calculated project wise for all projects which commence on or after 1st April, 2019 or ongoing projects in respect of which the promoter has not exercised option to pay central tax on construction of apartments at the rates as specified for item (ie) or (if) against serial number 3, as the case may be, in the prescribed manner, before the due date for furnishing of the return for the month of September following the end of financial year 2018-19, in the following manner:

1.                                   Where % completion as on 31st March, 2019 is not zero or where there is inventory in stock

(a)   Input tax credit on inputs and input services attributable to construction of residential portion in a REP, which has time of supply on or after 1st April, 2019, may be denoted as Tx. Tx shall be calculated as under:

Tx=T-Te

Where,

(i)                 T is the total ITC availed (utilized or not) on inputs and input services used in construction of the REP from 1st July, 2017 to 31st March, 2019 including transitional credit taken on 1st July, 2017;

(ii)               Te is the eligible ITC attributable to (a) construction of commercial portion and

(b)  construction of residential portion, in the REP which has time of supply on or before 31st March, 2019;

  1.                Te shall be calculated as under: Te=Tc+Tr

Where, -

Tc is the ITC attributable to construction of commercial portion in the REP, calculated as under:

Tc =T * (carpet area of commercial apartments in the REP/ total carpet area of commercial and residential apartments in the REP) and

Tr is the ITC attributable to construction of residential portion in the REP which has time of supply on or before 31st March, 2019 and which shall be calculated as under,

 

Tr= T* F1 * F2 * F3* F4 Where, -

 

 

 


F1= Carpet area of residential apartments in REP

Total carpet area of commercial and residential apartments in the REP

 

 

 

 

 

 

F2 =

 

 

 

 

 

 

F3 =


Total carpet area of residential apartment booked on or before 31st March, 2019

Total carpet area of the residential apartment in REP

 

 

Such Value of supply of construction of residential apartments booked on or before 31st March, 2019 which has time of supply on or before 31st March, 2019

 

Total value of supply of construction of residential apartments booked on or before 31st March, 2019

 

 

(F3 is to account for percentage invoicing of booked residential apartments)


F4= 1

% Completion of construction as on 31st March, 2019

Illustration: where one- fifth (twenty percent) of the construction has been completed, F4 shall be 100 ÷ 20 = 5.

Explanation: “% Completion of construction as on 31st March, 2019” shall be the same as declared to the Real Estate Regulatory Authority in terms of section 4 and section 11 of Real Estate (Regulation and Development) Act, 2016 (16 of 2016) and where the same is not required to be declared to the Real Estate Regulatory Authority, it shall be got determined and certified by an architect registered with the Council of Architecture constituted under the Architects Act, 1972 (20 of 1972) or a chartered engineer registered with the Institution of Engineers (India).

  1.                 A registered person shall have the option to calculate ‘Te’ in the manner prescribed below instead of the manner prescribed in (b) above,-

Te shall be calculated as under:

Te = Tc + T1 + Tr

Where, -

Tc is the ITC attributable to construction of commercial portion in the REP, calculated as under:

 

 

Tc =T3 * (carpet area of commercial apartments in the REP/ total carpet area of commercial and residential apartments in the REP);

Wherein

T3 = T- (T1 + T2)

T1 = ITC attributable exclusively to construction of commercial portion in the REP T2 = ITC attributable exclusively to construction of residential portion in the REP and

Tr is the ITC attributable to construction of residential portion in the REP which has time of supply on or before 31.03.2019 and which shall be calculated as under,

Tr = (T3 + T2)* F1 * F2 * F3* F4

or

Tr = (T- T1)* F1 * F2 * F3* F4

  1.              The amounts ‘Tx’ and ‘Te’ shall be computed separately for input tax credit of central tax, State tax, Union territory tax and integrated tax.
  2.                 Where, Tx is positive, i.e. TeFORM GST ITC- 03. FORM GST DRC- 03 {Corrected by Corrigendum dated 30th August, 2019, for Notification No. 03/2019- Central Tax (Rate)}

Explanation: The registered person may file an application in FORM GST DRC- 20, seeking extension of time for the payment of taxes or any amount due or for allowing payment of such taxes or amount in installments in accordance with the provisions of section 80. The commissioner may issue an order in FORM GST DRC- 21 allowing the taxable person further time to make payment and/or to pay the amount in such monthly installments, not exceeding twenty-four, as he may deem fit.

  1.                 Where Tx is negative, i.e. Te>T, the registered person shall be eligible to take ITC on goods and services received on or after 1st April, 2019 for construction of residential portion in the REP, for which he shall not otherwise be eligible, to the extent of difference between Te and T.
  2.                The registered person may calculate Tc and utilize credit to the extent of Tc for payment of tax on commercial apartments, till the complete accounting of Tx is carried out and submitted.
  3.                Where percentage completion is zero but ITC has been availed on goods and services received for the project on or prior to 31st March, 2019, input tax credit attributable to construction of residential portion which has time of supply on or after 1st April, 2019, shall be calculated and the amount equal to Tx shall be paid or taken credit of, as the case

 

 

 

may be, as prescribed above, with the modification that percentage completion for calculation of F4 shall be taken as the percentage completion which, as certified by an architect registered with the Council of Architecture constituted under the Architects Act, 1972 (20 of 1972) or a chartered engineer registered with the Institution of Engineers (India), can be achieved with the input services received and inputs in stock as on 31st March, 2019.

2.                                   Where % completion as on 31st March, 2019 is zero but invoicing has been done having time of supply before 31st March, 2019, and no input services or inputs have been received as on 31st March, 2019, “Te” shall be calculated as follows: -

(a)                Input tax credit on inputs and input services attributable to construction of residential portion in a REP, which has time of supply on or before 31st March, 2019 may be denoted as Te which shall be calculated as under,

Te = Tc + Tr Where, -

Tc is the ITC attributable to construction of commercial portion in the REP, calculated as under:

Tc =Tn* (carpet area of commercial apartments in the REP/ total carpet area of commercial and residential apartments in the REP) and

Tr is the ITC attributable to construction of residential portion in the REP which has time of supply on or before 31st March, 2019 and which shall be calculated as under,

Tr = Tn* F1 * F2 * F3 Where, -

Tn= Tax paid on such inputs and input services on which ITC is available under the CGST Act, received in 2019-20 for construction of REP

F1, F2 and F3 shall be the same as in para 1 above

(b)               The registered person shall be eligible to take ITC on goods and services received on or after 1st April, 2019 for construction of residential portion in the REP, for which he shall not otherwise be eligible, to the extent of the amount of Te.

(c)                The amount ‘Te’ shall be computed separately for input tax credit of central tax, State tax, Union territory tax and integrated tax.

3.                  Notwithstanding anything contained in paragraph 1 or paragraph 2 above, Te shall be determined in the following situations as under:

  1. where percentage invoicing is more than the percentage completion and the difference between percentage invoicing (per cent. points) and the percentage completion (per cent. points) of construction is more than 25 per cent. points; the value of percentage invoicing shall be deemed to be percentage completion plus 25 percent. points;

  1.  where the value of invoices issued on or prior to 31st March, 2019 exceeds the consideration actually received on or prior to 31st March, 2019 by more than 25 per cent. of consideration actually received; the value of such invoices for the purpose of determination of percentage invoicing shall be deemed to beactual consideration received plus 25 percent. of the actual consideration received; and
  2.  where, the value of procurement of inputs and input services prior to 1st April, 2019 exceeds the value of actual consumption of the inputs and input services used in the percentage of construction completed as on 31st March, 2019 by more than 25 percent. of value of actual consumption of inputs and input services, the jurisdictional commissioner or any other officer authorized in this regard may fix the Te based on actual per unit consumption of inputs and input services based on the documents duly certified by a chartered accountant or cost accountant submitted by the promoter in this regard, applying the accepted principles of accounting.

In this example, the promoter has procured 50 per cent. of goods and services from a GST registered person. However, he has procured sand, cement and aluminum windows, ply and commercial wood etc. from an unregistered supplier. Thus, value of goods and services procured from registered suppliers during a financial year falls short of threshold limit of 80 per cent. To fulfill his tax liability on the shortfall of 30 per cent. from mandatory purchase, the promoter has to pay GST on cement at the applicable rate on reverse charge basis. After payment of GST on cement, on the remaining shortfall of 15 per cent., the promoter shall pay tax @ 18 per cent. under RCM.
