receiving the said interest

of Computing Aggregate Turnover
i) Amounts received on maturity of Life Insurance Policies are not to be into consideration for the purpose of Computing Aggregate Turnover

B Items contained in Schedule III are not supplies ab initios hence by virtue of this Advance Ruling are not to be considered
for computation of Aggregate Turnover
Forward Supply
When the supplier of goods and services are under an obligate to discharge the liability of GST
This is the normal mechanosm
Forward Charge Then GST under this transaction will be paid by A since he is the supplier
so A will raise tax invoice on B and irrespective of the fact whether B pay A or not
A will have to pay GST on this transction
Reverse Charge On this transaction it is not A but B who will be liable to discharge this liablity
Can the supplier and the receiver decide between themselves that whether a particular
transaction would be under Forward Charge or under Reverse Charge
No this is not possible as all transactions are covered under forward charge
However the Govt specifies which transaction would be under RCM , only such transactions wud be covered by RCM.
Also once the the Govt has specified that a particular transaction will be under RCM it will always be under RCM
unless it is brought under forward mechanism by the Govt

From the above it is clear that the services provided by GTA are subject to GST unless specifically exempted
by way of a notification
Once the GTA has exercised the option to go for 12% it will not be able to change it
Thus if the GTA Opts for 12% GST then it will not be covered under RCM
If GTA opts for 5% then it will come under RCM then the person who is making the payment of Transportation
Charges will be liable to pay GST
If the rate adopted is 5% but the receipent is not in the list given above the gst will be on Forward Mechansim
Is every transporter classified as GTA are some conditins have to be stafied for it to be classified as GTA

In this case GST would be applicable in view of the provisions the service is interest
contained in Sec 15(2)(d) which states that interest on delayed
payments in respect of credit given on goods and services In the second case no loan was given but
would be a part of the cvalue of the goods either goods were supplied or services were
provided. There was a credit period and
interest on same is charged for delayed
In case of loans a default can result into the following payment. What is the applicabilbilty of
10% a) Interst on the amount payable for the extended period GST
b) Penal interest which means that rate interest will go up
say by 2%
effective rate will be 12%
a) Interest is a supply
b) Interest is considered for determing Aggregate Turnove
c) If interest is covered by Exemption Notification no GST would be appliable
d) In terest on delayed payments in respect of credit on goods and services is covered in value of supply uder Sec 15
hence GST is applicable
As per Sec 15(2) a of CGST Act all taxes, duties charged under any law that is in force except CGST/SGST/UTGST/IGST
has to be added to the consideration to determine the value of the goods for levy of GST
This is the reason why we add Basic Custom duty to the CIF value of goods imported into India and on the total of this
we charge IGST
Supplier both to or from in the both the above cases would amount to Inter State Supply in
view of the provisions of Sec 7(5) of IGST Act
Domestic Tarriff Area DTA
In case a supply is classified as Zero Rated Supply the benefit of ITC will be available and it will not be treated as an
Exempt supply
1 AB is a unit situated in DTA and it supplies goods to a unit in SEZ . The consideration of this supply is Rs 100000
The rate of GST applicale on these goods is 18%. Since the supply is to a unit in GST it will be zero rated
supply and there will be no gst on this supply
2 XY is a unit based in SEZ. It supplies goods of Rs 100000 to a unit in DTA. The rate of GST on these goods is 12%
Since this will be a supply from SEZ IGST will be applicable . However before charging IGST the basic custom duty
will have to be charged
The benefit under this section is available to the supplier of Zero rated Goods
His first option is that he supplies goods without charging and paying any GST because the goods are zero rated
If he execises this option he must execute a Bond or a LUT with GST
But on the inputs I ould have paid GST either by way of CGST/ SGST Or IGST
Since ITC is availble on the inputs in respect of Zero rated Supplies under this section he can
claim a refund of the same
Sec 16(3) (2) option to pay igst and claim refund in case of supplies to SEZ
a) Raise a tax invoice on the SEZ unit and charge IGST at applicable rates. This is to be done by the unit in DTA
b) In the invoice declaration is to be given that supply is made to SEZ under payment of IGST
c) The amount charged in the invoice as IGST is only for presentation purposes and not to be collected
from the SEZ unit
d) If there is any ITC credit available claim the same against the output Iigst
f) If ITC is not sufficient to cover the output IGST pay the balance
g) Collect evidence as per GST Rules that the supply has been effected to the SEZ
After getting the evidence that supplies to SEZ has been effected AB will claim the refund of IGST of Rs 36,000
Thus by virtue of the above not only will it get refund on the Input tax but also of the payment made
This would be most suited when the input tax in respect of Supplies to SEZ can be set off against other
domestic Supplies
a) The benefit of ITC can only be claimed by a Registered Person. An ungistered person will have to forego this
benefit and will have to absorb Input tax as a part of his cost. Thus it is recommended that any person
who pays tax on inputs should go for registration even if he is not required under law
However a person only supplying Exempt good need not go for registration because he will
not be able to claim ITC For a person supply zero rated goods registration would be required as
for the following reasons
a For interstate supply of goods registration is compulsory
b If he is not registered he will not be able to take benefit of Sec 16(3)
b) The benefit of ITC can be taken only if the inputs have been utilized for furtherence of Business
Case Study Mr A is a Director of AB Ltd. The company buys Aircinditioners which are installed at the
residence of A. This is not for furtherece of business
c) Further two conditions that should be satisfied for claiming the benefit of ITC are as follows
i The person claiming benefit of ITC should be in possession of Tax Invoice/ Debit
ii The goods should have been delivered to him
c) For claimimg ITC you must ensure that tax has been by the supplier
A will one day close his firm. In this ITC will be denied to B as the goods were never delivered to him
gst deptt will claim the ITC claimed by the person along with interest and penalty
GST deppt will inform income tax that the invoice is a fake invoice
so Income will reject than exp and addit to your profit. So libility of Income intt and penalty
If the amount is large CBI/ EOW will also get involved

i) Sec 143
ii) Rule 45 of CGST Rules
iii) Sec 19 in respect of claiming ITC on goods sent for job work
The job worker will raise an invoice on the Principal for Job Work Charges. That will be Considered as Service in terms of
Schedule II . On this the job worker would be charging GST at the
The Process house will be raising an invoice on A for the processing charges. This is called Job Work
The essential condition for applicability of Sec 143 is that the Principal should be a Registered Person
The job worker may be registered or unregistered
Obligation of return of things sent to the job worker When job work is given the principal will give
specifications
a) No obligation to bring back dyes/ tools/ moulds etc
b) Inputs should be brought back within a period of One year Can be extended by another on year Subject to permission
c) Capital Goods should be brought back within a period of three Can be extended by another two years by Comissioner
A principal who is a registered dealer may send the goods to a job worker withou payment of tax
subject to fulfillment of conditions
a) The job worker is a registered person either voluntarily or because his turnover is above the threshold limit
b) The job worker is a unregitered peroson
In case the job worker is a unregistered person then the Principal has to declare the place of the job worker as his
additional place of business
The other alternative for the Principal is that within the prescibed period he supplies the goods to a third party directly from Job Worker
i) If the supply is within the taxable territory then on payment of tax by the Principal
ii) If exports then without payment of tax as per export procedures
Supply to job worker by principal even though a supply will not attract GST
Job Work done by the Job Worker is a supply of service as per Schedule II, hence Job Work charges which
is a consideration for Service applicable GST would be charged
GST on Supplies made directly or from the premises of Job Worker 100000
Less Input Tax Credit
a) GST paid on Inputs 50000
b) GST paid on Job Work Charges 5000 55000
Wahat will be the adjustment for Job Worker This is only if the job worker is registered
The job may, in order to execute the job work may need some inputs
such as Chemicals/ polising material/ colours/tools
When he acquired these input he paid a GST of Rs 2000. He will be entitled to ITC of this Rs 2000 because the
inputs are for furtherence of Business
Except for tools and dyes etc if the inputs or capital goods are not brought back by the Principal or are not futher supplied
it will be considered to be to a supply to the job worker from the day on which it was delivered
Hence GST would become payble by the Principal along with interest
GST Act does not say that the Principal must take a consideration for goods not returned
GST Act says on the supply to job worker we had given you an exemption under Sec 143. We are not taxing sale but we are taking supply
So if you do not fulfill the prescibed conditions this supply becomes taxable
In case the goods are sent by the Principal to the job worker the date on which the said goods were sent have to
be taken as date for caculation the prescribed period
In case the goods are sent to the job worker by the supplier of the Principal then the date on which the said goods were
received by the job worker shall be taken as date for this compliance
A has raised the tax invoice say in the month of Jan so by 20th Feb A must make payment
How payment is made
a) From the output tax that is as per the invoices raised in the month of Jan the Input Tax Credit is deducted
b) If there is a shortfall ie the ITC is not sufficient the balance will have to be paid to Govt
What happens if B never makes payment of the Invoice to A ie it becomes a Bad Debt
Consequence for B If B does not make payment to A of the invoice within 180 days of the date of Invoice
then B will have to reverse the ITC availed by it added to his output tax
liability and along with interest he has to pay the same
A raised the invoice on 29th of Jan . Period of Credit is 60 days. So the payment of invoice will fall due on 28th of March
But A will ve to make payment of GST by 20th of Feb
B does not do the reversal, how will gst authorities come to know that B has not reversed
a) This will be a part of your Audit report
b) at the time of assessment
c) A can make a complaint that he has not been paid within 180 hence B should reverese the credit
Suppose B reverses the ITC after expiry of 180 days and pays to the Govt the GST along with Interest now GST authoroties are out
Circumsatances in which refund can be claimed for unutilzed Input Tax Credit
In case the rate of GST on outward supply is lower than the rate of GST on inputs refund of excess will be allowed
In case of Bad Debt as of now there is no provision of claim of refund by the the supplier
We know that on exempt supplies neither ITC is available nor refund is available
Lease
Financial Lease
Operational Lease
As per Sec 2(83) lease is covered under the definition of Outward Supply
As per Schedule II lease is a supply of service and not supply of goods as it is transfer of right of use without transfer of title
Operational Lease Short term transfer or what we can also say giving goods on hire
Construction Equipment
Examples Cinema Equipment
When I want to buy an equipment I have two options On interest on loan there is no GST
a) Take term loan from bank Exp interest
b) Enter into a long term lease agreement with a financer . In this case the financer buys the equipment
and gives it to me on long term basis and ta Exp the entire lease rental
generally on the expiry of the term of the lease the lessor will transfer the equipment at a pre determined price
So during the lease period there is no distiction under GST between operational lease and financial lease
on both gst at applicable rates wil be charged
