(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 31
st
March, 2019;
(b) 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 31
st
March, 2019 and which shall be calculated as under,

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

14


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

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

March, 2019
F2 =
Total carpet area of the residential apartment in REP


Such Value of supply of construction of residential apartments
booked on or before 31
st
March, 2019 which has time of supply on or
before 31
st
March, 2019
F3 =
Total value of supply of construction of residential apartments
booked on or before 31
st
March, 2019
(F3 is to account for percentage invoicing of booked residential apartments)

F4= 1
% Completion of construction as on 31
st
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 31
st
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).
(c) 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:

15

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
(d) The amounts ‘Tx’ and ‘Te’ shall be computed separately for input tax credit of
central tax, State tax, Union territory tax and integrated tax.
(e) 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.
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.
(f) 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 1
st
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.
(g) 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.
(h) Where percentage completion is zero but ITC has been availed on goods and
services received for the project on or prior to 31
st
March, 2019, input tax credit attributable
to construction of residential portion which has time of supply on or after 1
st
April, 2019,
shall be calculated and the amount equal to Tx shall be paid or taken credit of, as the case

16

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 31
st

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 31
st
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 31
st
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 1
st
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:
(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

17

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 31
st
March, 2019 exceeds the
consideration actually received on or prior to 31
st
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
(iii) where, the value of procurement of inputs and input services prior to 1
st
April,
2019 exceeds the value of actual consumption of the inputs and input services used
in the percentage of construction completed as on 31
st
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.

premium, salami, development charges etc.) or FSI (including additional FSI), electricity, high speed

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.
