Mr YS Rajput, In which place you have done this construction and selling of flats?. In fact,you should have charged and collected ST from the flat buyers before registering them to their names and handing over for occupation.If your construction and business go unnoticed by the ST department you are lucky. If they(ST dept) issue notice to you then you have bear the whole liability your self,pay from back date with interest and penalty. There are three methods of paying it,viz: composition,abatement and actuals. For details contact any consultant.....mjk
