When you deposit your capital gains into a Capital Gains Account Scheme (CGAS) to claim an exemption under sections like 54, 54F, or 54EC, you may later need to withdraw funds from this account when you actually make the required investment.
Key Point: There is no distinct, numbered form prescribed in the Income Tax Act specifically for the withdrawal of funds from a Capital Gains Account. Instead, the process is carried out online.
How It Works:
Online Application: You are required to log in to the official Income Tax e-filing portal where the Capital Gains Account Scheme is managed.
Within this online module, you will find an option to submit a withdrawal request.
You need to furnish the necessary details, such as the amount you intend to withdraw and the purpose of the withdrawal (for example, for acquiring a new asset to claim an exemption).
Supporting Documents: Along with your online request, you must upload or submit the relevant documents, such as evidence of the intended investment. This ensures that the withdrawal is used in accordance with the provisions of the Act.
Approval Process: Once your request is submitted, the authorities will process it. On approval, the funds will be released from the Capital Gains Account and can be used to make the qualifying investment.
Bottom Line:
There isn’t a separate “Form 10D” or similar for withdrawing funds. Instead, you complete a withdrawal application through the online Capital Gains Account Scheme portal on the Income Tax e-filing website. This streamlined process is designed to facilitate the smooth utilization of your capital gains for eligible investments.

Hi,
An elevator is treated as a part of the building.
An elevator is an integral part of the building and doesn’t have a separate identity i.e it cannot be sold as individual peace. It is designed and assembled as per the requirement of a building which makes it an integral part of the building.
We can refer to the explanation of section 17 (5) of the CGST Act as the expression “plant and machinery” means apparatus, equipment, and machinery fixed to earth by foundation or structural support that are used for making outward supply of goods or services or both and includes such foundation and structural supports but excludes-
(i) land, building or any other civil structures;
(ii) telecommunication towers; and
(iii) pipelines laid outside the factory premises.
Section 17(5)(d) does not allow to take ITC on goods or services or both received by a taxable person for the construction of an immovable property.

Yes, an E-invoice can be generated for backdated invoices and there is no time limit for businesses with a turnover of less than 100 crore. GST portal is allowing it.
But rule 48 says that every business having a turnover of more than 5 Cr must issue an E-invoice and section 31 says that a Tax invoice should be issued before or at the time of supply of service or delivery of goods.
Accordingly, in my opinion, in your case, E-invoice is mandatory and it must be issued as per the normal timeline. GST portal is allowing you to generate the e-invoice on a later date but that does not mean that you are allowed to violate Rule 48 and section 31.
in the best scenario, an E-invoice should be generated before the filing of GSTR-1 so that it can be auto-populated.
