Hello,

There is no provision for you to receive back the service tax and banakhat amount.

Regards

1. Firstly what is the term & condition of agreement

2. Then it will proceed with that

You can file a suit for cancellation and recovery.

1) Charges paid to govt in the form of GST and stamp duty that wont be refunded. Take remaining amount after deduction, check the new GST rules manual on RERA website.

the concerned builder can make adjustment of excess payment of Service Tax in terms of Rule 6(3) of Service Tax Rules, 1994 which is given below for ready reference:

“Where an assessee has issued an invoice or received any payment, against a service to be provided which is not so provided by him either wholly or partially for any reason, or where the amount of invoice is renegotiated due to deficient provision of service, or any terms contained in a contract, the assessee may take the credit of such excess service tax paid by him, if the assessee:-

Has refunded the payment or part thereof, so received for the service provided to the person from whom it was received; or

(b) Has issued a credit note for the value of the service not so provided to the person to whom such an invoice has been issued.”

You can get refund of service tax paid by you

The service tax paid to the government cannot be returned by the builder because it is not held by him, he has to deposit the same to government account every month accordingly.

The other statutory charges are to be paid while cancelling the booking on your own.

The builder may be requested to not to deduct his charges since you have not yet entered into a sale agreement also.

The service tax and the registration charges cannot be refunded since it has been paid to the government account.

The 1% charges towards the sale agreement is very reasonable.

Firslty, yes he is right where he says that service tax once gone it’s gone then to government, you can’t get it back.

Secondly, But, with regard to one percent, you may be successful if it is not there in contract that if you cancel then same would not be refunded.

Thirdly, if it is there then you may not be able succeed.

This is my response to you:

1. You will not get the return of the service tax amount paid, since it is now GST. Therefore approach the GST department for refund of service tax;

2. This is how to get a refund of GST:

Step 1: Login to GST Portal

Step 2: Go to ‘Services’ > ‘Refunds’ > ‘Application for Refund’

Step 3: Select ‘Refund of Excess Balance in Electronic Cash Ledger’ and click on ‘CREATE’;

Step 4: Once you click on ‘CREATE’ in the above step a screen will appear reflecting all balances in the Electronic Cash Ledger which can be claimed as refund.

Step 5: Select the Bank Account (in which you want the refund to be credited) from the drop-down and click on ‘SAVE’.

Step 6: Click on the checkbox in the declaration. Select the name fo the ‘Authorised Signatory’ from the drop-down.

3. You can also call up the GST department and resolve your query;

4. Registration fees will not be payable back to you since its non-refundable;

5. If registration and stamp duty has been paid by you, then you become the owner of the flat since it is effectively transferred to you;

6. Why don't you sell it at profit to somebody else.
