When you buy a house, you pay for two components:

1) Value of land
2) Construction offered by the developer (service provider)

Service tax is payable only in case of construction services and not on the value of land. In cases where it becomes difficult to ascertain cost of immovable property and service cost separately, government has come up with the provision of abatement scheme where an amount is levied on the total amount.
