Comments


wilma S: As per the customs notification 72/2017 dtd.16.8.2017, whether Integrated tax is wholly exempted and the percentage of duty payable is on the Basic Customs Duty. ie., whether so much of customs duty includes Basic Customs duty and integrated tax or only Basic customs duty only.

Abhijit Samdole: Is GST is applicable for maintenance amount we paid directly to builder before formation of society
