If it's a unit where the completion certificate is received, no gst liability

What if completion certificate not received till date. As the flat is not yet completed???

It can be argued that it is an immovable property which is sold and thereby no gst liability. However the dept would contend it to fall under sch II entry 5b and thereby liable to gst. If commercial 18% else 7.5%

Shilpi ji,

I am a bit confused. I suppose I have provided incomplete details about the facts.

Please help me with this complete facts.

The assessee is a private limited company where he has inventory of building which is unsold as on date. The building was of service tax era. No ITC claimed under GST. No completion certificate received till date.

As the company is unable to sale the flat the management has decided to capitalise the assets in the company books of accounts for renting the property in future.

No does the liability to pay GST arises for mere transfer of property from inventory to fixed assets register.

Thanks and regards

Dear Punit Ji,

It's just the book adjustment. Ownership never changes, there is no supply involved. Seems impossible to call the builder/company as a supplier and recipient at the same time.

Stock-in-trade (inventory) to capital assets, to my view, just a book adjustment where ownership never changes. So, if there is no supply then no GST.

Agree with Mr. Abhishek. No supply and mere book entry.
