RAndom PIck : “GST Audit is applicable for societies with turnover above Rs 2 crores.”
That sounds a great escape, to know and breath soundly a sigh of relief, for time being. And, perhaps, looking at the astronomical number specified for the threshold, as is to be readily imagined, for good or bad, no ‘housing society’ , including howsoever the high end one that be, might escape the worrisome hardship/ clutches of ‘GST Audit’.
But the most fundamental and rudimentary proposition, omitted to even be made a mention of, – Inadvertently or otherwise by the Author, a CA, – is, – whether at all a ‘housing society’ is liable for being roped in , within the net of GST Levy. According to a so-believed well articulated view, founded on logical reasoning, the Answer may have to be better taken, at least for now, as an emphatic “NO”.
For MORE, if independently care to, and painstakingly look through, for an insightful study and incisive conclusion, helpful clues may be found in the related Aricles displayed on this Website , itself – HERE >
