Thanks a lot respected Ca Sanat Pyne for your detailed answer, i appreciate the time taken to reply in detail.
In A5, as per my understanding wrt GST as it is a construction based on individual level and not as as firm/company/Aop/trust etc., the 3 brothers would not be liable to aquire GST. They will be the end consumers for the material purchased and the construction service opted without any setoff. So they would just be paying the GST on the goods and services and add it to cost of construction.
Is that correct ?
