GST council to discuss issue of bringing real estate under its purview: Jaitley

13 Oct 2017 Evaluate

Identifying real estate as the one sector where maximum amount of tax evasion and cash generation takes place, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has said that the issue of bringing the sector under the purview of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) will be discussed in the next meeting of the GST Council, which will be held on November 9. He also expects that the move would benefit the consumers who will only have to pay one final tax on the whole product.

As a result of this, the minister stated that the final tax paid on the whole product in the news tax regime would almost be negligible. He also said that the reduction in eventual expenditure along with incentivizing people to enter the tax net may also help reduce the size of shadow economy. He indicated that a 12 percent GST is levied on the construction of a complex, building, civil structure or intended for sale to a buyer, wholly or partly, however, land and other immovable property have been exempted from the GST.

Besides, according to the National Housing Bank (NHB), India's real estate sector is set to become a $180-billion industry by 2020, building on initiatives such as smart city mission and tax sops for investment trust REIT. On the basis of the Smart City projects, land record digitisation, withdrawal of corporate tax from REIT structure, the real estate sector growth is bound to attract funds and confidence of the investors as well in a big way.
