Ms Anita, Here the builder,your client, has to enter into a contract fo constructing flats to his customers.So, his recipts becomes a contractor's turnover. He can deduct the payment made to his subcontractors and th balance becomes his taxable turn over.Of course,he may reduce the cost of land and amenities from his receipts to arrive at the actual taxable value.....MJK
