A. Dear Sir,
With GST rate cut on under-construction properties, the GST for under-construction affordable housing units is 1%, while for non-affordable projects it is 5%, without input tax credit.

GST Council has approved the proposal of 5 percent tax on residential properties and 1 percent for affordable housing. These taxes are valid from 1st April 2019.

icon Can I buy a Muslim property i am a hindu

Can I buy a Muslim property i am a hindu


A. Hi,
Yes, a property is not limiting, and a person is not prohibited from owning a certain property merely because of his or her religious beliefs. Some people are averse to selling their property to persons of different faiths. You won't be able to purchase the land in such a case. Otherwise, there is no legal stumbling block. Just be certain there are no legal encumbrances.
Thank you. Kindly rate the answer.
