Is the service tax really applicable now? My sister-in-law has purchased an apartment in OMR (Regalia) and they did not have to pay the service tax. Should we check with the auditors on this? BTW I have purchased an apartment in pricent1

We have also booked one in P3 block and we were also notified of the service tax. But pricing wise I think Chennai prices are much higher than B-lore prices. Not sure why the prices are so high in Chennai compared to B-lore. Normally B-lore price are higher, any hope for re-aligning the prices in Chennai?

Hi,
We have booked an apartment with P2 in La Celeste. We have recently received a letter that service tax of 4.12% is applicable for all payments we do to xsreal and for the last payment, the invoice was raised with the service tax included.
Also yesterday we have got another letter that we have to pay service tax on all previous payment amounts!
Has anyone else received such letters? And is this mandatory? It seems that they are going on adding some charges or the other. We just finished paying an Infrastructure Fees and now the service tax!
Thanks.

First block (P-I) which was promised to be delivered by Dec 09 end is still undergoing finishing work and other amenities. I don’t think it would be ready in all respect before May – June 10.

That raises serious doubt on timely completion of other blocks.

Hi Anoo,

I may not be able to comment specifically on La Celeste. My husband and I own an XS Real property in Chennai, my overall feeling is as a builder , this group focuses a lot on creating apartments with good looks and prestige value. However this will translate into some wasteful expenditure by the builder at “your cost”. You will likely pay for features and amenities that have very limited utility value in the long term. Construction quality is good, service and support by the team onsite is usually good, however I wouldn’t feel that way about the team at their corporate office. NOTE that I am sharing my feedback based on my experiences in 2003-04.
