Dear Sir/Madam,
I have bought a new flat from land owner share last year August 2015. My Loan was approved in August and Sale Deed/Registration was done in August 2015. I shifted to House in September 1st week 2015. It was ready to move flat. It was land owner share and I bought from Land Owner. My Apartment is in Sahakara Nagar Bangalore North.
Now Builder & Land Owner asked me to pay Service Tax 3.5% of total Flat value as per Sale deed.
1. Can you please advice if I should pay Service tax. There were some blogs which says, its not applicable on ready to move flat from Land Owner Share and some says we need to pay. Please advice.
2. Is there a way I can pay directly to Government this service tax if I need to pay.
3. I have to yet receive NDC (No Dues certificate) from Builder & land Owner. Can I take it on Builder's letterhead or I need to get some legal document for No Dues Certificate.
Regards
Rajneesh
