UNION BUDGET 2013 - 14 : Real Estate Related EXPECTATIONS


by S.SATHEESH KUMAR, Chartered Accountant, Chennai,

**       Present Limit on Expenditure on cash payment of Rs. 20,000, it was introduced during 1997 this has to be increased to Rs.1 lakh because within the span of 16 years the inflation is increased above 5 (Five) times. This can be adopted for loans and deposits availed or  / repaid by way of cash .

**  Property Value is in a Highly increasing trend. So the interest exemption for self occupied house can be increased from Rs.1.5 Lakhs to Rs.2.5 Lakhs so that everyone can have their own dream home without burning their fingers for taxation purpose.

**       The rate of interest for government infrastructure bonds has to be increased & special incentive has to be given for investment in government infrastructure bonds. So, central Govt can have more funds, they can reduce their borrowings from world bank. So, that people will come forward to invest under the government schemes &  get the maximum benefits, so funds will be unearthened.
Mr. SATHEESH KUMAR, C.A, Chennai

**.      It is suggested to introduce clearance certificate from Income Tax Department for selling of property more than Rs. 1 crore. So that People will pay tax at the time of selling the property itself. Now the criminal & investigation wings officials are catching them. Instead of giving torture to assesses, Income tax department has to be user friendly. 

**       80GG Rent paid - maximum amount allowed is now  Rs.2,000 per month. It is very low this has to be increased to Rs.10,000 per month


**   For filing TDS return instead of Quarterly Returns it can be annualized, so people can do their business comfortably without going behind always with the auditors but payment of TDS has to be made every month.

**       All state government panchayath offices and other government offices are to be educated for filing TDS return regularly.

**       Reduce Service Tax on construction  from 12.36  %  to 5  % otherwise evasion of tax will come.

**     As far as Service tax relating to construction of building is concerned the followings has to be kept in mind:
               1. Service tax should not be charged for middle class and lower middle class persons.
            2.  Those who are purchasing the first house the service tax exemption has to be given to the purchaser.
             3. Service tax department has to follow only the present revenues, without torturing the previous years.
            4.  Small builders to be given some exemptions for payment of service tax
