GST Treatment: Construction Business

GST - Construction Business

Introduction

This guide will teach you the way to enter the tax invoice to the Developer from Main Contractor.

We have to look into and show the following items in order to calculate the GST amount in the Tax Invoice:

1. Certified value - Progress claim value certified by Architect.
2. Retention Amount - the amount of progress payment which is not paid until the conditions specified in the contract for the payment of such amounts have been met or until defects have been rectified.
3. Progress payment

For example,

Progress Payment - 1st interim certificate	Amount (Rm)	Calculation
Value of material and works (A1)	30,000.00
Less: Retention Sum (B1)	1,500.00	Rm30,000 x 5%
Amount Paid (excl GST)	28,500.00	A1 - B1
