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 and commercial portion in an RREP, 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 RREP from 1st July, 2017 to 31st March, 2019 including transitional credit taken on 1st July, 2017;

(ii) Te is the eligible ITC attributable to construction of commercial portion and construction of residential portion, in the RREP which has time of supply on or before 31st March, 2019;

(b) Te shall be calculated as under:

Te= T* F1 * F2 * F3* F4

Where, -

F1= Carpet area of residential and commercial apartments in the RREP
            Total carpet areaofapartments in the RREP

(In case of a Residential Real Estate Project, value of “F1” shall be 1.)


F2=Total carpet area of residential and commercial apartment booked on or before 31st March, 2019
        Total carpet area of the residential and commercial apartment in the RREP

F3=Such value of supply of construction of residential and commercial 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 and commercial 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 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).

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

(d) Where, Tx is positive, i.e. Te < T, the registered person shall pay, by debit in the electronic credit ledger or electronic cash ledger, an amount equal to the
difference between T and Te. Such amount shall form part of the output tax liability of the registered person and the amount shall be furnished in FORM GST ITC- 03.

(e) 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 the RREP, for which he shall not otherwise be eligible, to the extent of difference between Te and T.

(f) 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 and commercial 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 and commercial portion in an RREP, which has time of supply on or before 31st March, 2019 may be denoted as Te which shall be calculated as under,

Te = 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 residential and commercial apartments in the RREP.
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 or commercial portion in the RREP, 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:

(i) 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;

(ii) 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 be actual consideration received plus 25 per cent. of the actual consideration received; and

(iii) 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 per cent. 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.
