It is true that VAT is not applicable on sale of immovable property.
However, transfer of goods(bricks etc. as mentioned by you) involved in the execution in the works contract is treated as sale for the purpose of VAT under clause 29A of article 366 of the Constitution.
In view of the above, works contract is a deemed sale for the purpose of VAT laws.
