    It is common knowledge that within the short span of less than 2-3 years of the coming into force of the two important legislations impacting the interests of the 'stakeholders', - the GST Code and the RERA, there have been numerous changes announced of quite a material / drastic nature. In respect of such changes made from time to time, separate effective date (of each such amend of the law has been prescribed. For the legal implications of anyone of such changes what would, however, require to be made a conscious note of, and kept in mind, is that depending upon the significance thereof, the concept of so called ‘effective date’ might have to be differently understood for application, implementation and enforcement.
    For a sample, one such recent change is the revised /reduced GST Rate of 5 % to ‘’ under- construction contracts “ (i.e. “ONGOING PROJECTS”). For FEED –input supplied, attention is invited to the Posts in Social Media , in the form of comments.
