Audit & Tax Solutions for Real Estate

Real estate developers, builders, and property management firms face unique GST structures, project-based accounting challenges, and RERA compliance requirements. CNS Advisors provides comprehensive financial support for the real estate sector.

Industry Challenges

Common Real Estate Financial Challenges

These are the issues we see real estate businesses struggle with most — and exactly what we solve.

GST on Under-Construction Properties

Different GST rates for affordable vs premium housing, ITC restrictions, and the 1% / 5% scheme choices create complex tax scenarios.

Project-Based Revenue Recognition

Revenue recognition under Ind AS 115 (over time vs point in time) for real estate projects affects tax liability and financial reporting.

RERA Compliance & Reporting

Maintaining separate RERA bank accounts, quarterly reporting, and project-wise financial disclosures are mandatory.

TDS on Property Transactions

Section 194-IA TDS on property purchases, 194C on contractor payments, and 194J on professional fees require careful compliance.
