a. the total input tax involved on inputs and input services in a tax period, be denoted as 'T‘;
b.the amount of input tax, out of T‘, attributable to inputs and input services intended to be used exclusively for the purposes other than business, be denoted as'T1‘;

[Explanation: For the purpose of this clause, it is hereby clarified that in case of supply of services covered by clause (b) of paragraph 5 of Schedule II of the said Act, value of T4 shall be zero during the construction phase because inputs and input services will be commonly used for construction of apartments booked on or before the date of issuance of completion certificate or first occupation of the project, whichever is earlier, and those which are not booked by the said date.]46
g. 'T1‘, T2‘, T3‘ and T4‘ shall be determined and declared by the registered person 1[at the invoice level in FORM GSTR-2 and] at summary level in FORM GSTR-3B47;

D1= (E÷F) × C2
where,
'E‘ is the aggregate value of exempt supplies during the tax period, and 'F‘ is the total turnover in the State of the registered person during the tax period:
[Provided that in case of supply of services covered by clause (b) of paragraph 5 of Schedule II of the Act, the value of E/F‘ for a tax period shall be calculated for each project separately, taking value of E and F as under:-
E= aggregate carpet area of the apartments, construction of which is exempt from tax plus aggregate carpet area of the apartments, construction of which is not exempt from tax, but are identified by the promoter to be sold after issue of completion certificate or first occupation, whichever is earlier;

[Provided further]50 that where the registered person does not have any turnover during the said tax period or the aforesaid information is not available, the value of E/F‘ shall be calculated by taking values of E‘ and F‘ of the last tax period for which the details of such turnover are available, previous to the month during which the said value of E/F‘ is to be calculated;
Explanation: For the purposes of this clause, it is hereby clarified that the aggregate value of exempt supplies and the total turnover shall exclude the amount of any duty or tax levied under entry 84 [and entry 92A]51 of List I of the Seventh Schedule to the Constitution and entry 51 and 54 of List II of the said Schedule;
j. the amount of credit attributable to non-business purposes if common inputs and input services are used partly for business and partly for non-business purposes, be denoted as D2‘, and shall be equal to five per cent. of C2; and
k. the remainder of the common credit shall be the eligible input tax credit attributed to the purposes of business and for effecting supplies other than exempted supplies but including zero rated supplies and shall be denoted as C3‘, where,-
C3 = C2 - (D1+D2);
[(l) the amount C3, D1‘ and D2‘ shall be computed separately for input tax credit of central tax, State tax, Union territory tax and integrated tax and declared in FORM GSTR-3B or through FORM GST DRC-03;]52
