Understanding GST and TDS on commercial property

Questions to take to an Indian chartered accountant before payment.

Questions to take to an Indian chartered accountant before payment.

What to know

GST and property-related TDS depend on transaction facts and current law. Project stage, seller status, consideration, payment timing and the nature of the supply can all matter.

Ask for a dated cost sheet and invoice position, then obtain transaction-specific advice before each material payment. BPPL does not provide tax advice.

This guide is general information only. Confirm eligibility, documents, payment, tax and registration requirements with qualified advisers and the relevant authorised dealer bank.

Practical next steps

  • Confirm your exact buyer category and the project record.
  • Request current unit information, a complete cost sheet and draft transaction documents.
  • Use official payment instructions and preserve the complete banking trail.
  • Keep independent legal and tax review separate from the sales process.
