As per the exemption list as available after the conclusion of GST council meet dated 19-5-2017, no exemption to such activity is visible.

Lest us wait for final notification.

AI Summary

GST exemption uncertainty for water and sewage pipeline works persists pending issuance of final notification. GST treatment of works for water supply and sewage pipeline projects remains uncertain: no explicit exemption appeared on exemption lists after the GST Council meeting, so such municipal water and sewage pipeline works should be regarded as subject to GST until a final notification clarifies the applicable rate or exemption status.
