SUPPLY – TAXABLE EVENT
1. Applicability of GST on inter-state transfer of aircraft engines, parts and accessories for use by their
own airlines
.
Consider following situation

• ABC Ltd. is an aircraft operator operating pan-india air travel services. It has registered officers in different states. It sent some
parts and accessories of aircraft from its Delhi registered premise to Maharashtra registered premise. Whether this transaction
would amount to supply of goods under GST?
• Sec 7(1)(c) read with Schedule I of the CGST Act, supply of goods or services or both between related persons
or between distinct persons as specified in Section 25, when made in the course or furtherance of
business, even if, without consideration, attracts GST. Thus, GST is payable on such inter-state transfer of
aircraft engines.
.
• Clarification:
o Recipient unit shall be eligible to avail ITC.
o ITC admissible notwithstanding that credit of input tax charged on consumption of such goods is not
allowed for supply of service of transport of passengers by air in economy class at GST rate of 5%.
This was clarified by the Circular no. 16/16/2017-GST dated 15th November 2017.
2. Movement of goods (such as jewellery) for supply on approval basis (intra or inter-State)
At times, suppliers have to visit other places and carry their goods along for approval. They can only issue the
invoice at the time of supply and while carrying the goods they are not aware if the goods will be sold. While
carrying goods to other goods, the supplier cannot even register as a casual taxable person as it is impossible for
him to ascertain the supplies beforehand.
• For carrying out this supply, it has been provided that the supplier should issue a delivery challan for initial
transportation of goods.
• Only when the supply gets confirmed, the invoice can be issued.
• Further, such supplies where the supplier carries the goods from one State to another and supplies them in a
different State, will be treated as inter-State supplies. Therefore, they will attract integrated tax.
The above has been clarified vide Circular No. 10/10/2017-GST dated 18th October 2017.
Author
Jeweler of Delhi taking jewelry with him for sale on approval basis to a buyer in UP
• Jewellery taken from Delhi Showroom to UP = Not a supply – movement under delivery challan
• Jewellery shown to customer
• Customer confirms acceptance after 3 days
• Now, supply is taking place – [acceptance creating supply] – this supply involving no movement
• PoS as per Sec 10(1)(c) of IGST Act = Location of goods at time of delivery to recipient = UP
• Thus, this supply by jeweler = Inter State Supply = IGST Chargeable
3. Supply of goods by artist in various states to art galleries

An artist/painter of Delhi sending his painting for exhibition in Mumbai – subsequent sale therefrom
• Artist of Delhi sending their artwork to ART GALLERY for exhibition in Mumbai – Art Gallery exhibit it for supply
• If art work is selected, then sale/transaction takes place and invoice is issued by artist.
• Issues:
• Whether sending goods to Art Gallery is ‘supply’?
.
• If not, then what shall be the place of supply of such transaction and consequent nature of supply?
3
Clarifications:
1) Time when supply is taking place: in case of supply by artists through galleries, there is no consideration
flowing from the gallery to the artist when the art works are sent to the gallery for exhibition and therefore,
the same is not a supply. It is only when the buyer selects a particular art work displayed at the gallery, that
the actual supply takes place and applicable GST would be payable at the time of such supply.
• The confusion here was regarding the treatment of this activity whether it is taxable in the hands of the artist
when the same is given to the art gallery or at the time of actual supply by the gallery.
• It is seen that Rule 55 (1)(c) of the CGST Rules, 2017 provides that the supplier shall issue a delivery challan
for the initial transportation of goods where such transportation is for reasons other than by way of supply.
• It is also seen that Rule 55(4) of CGST Rules provides that where the goods being transported are for the
purpose of supply to the recipient, but the tax invoice could not be issued at the time of removal of goods for
the purpose of supply, the supplier shall issue a tax invoice after delivery of goods.
.
2) Dispatch to Art Gallery: Documentation: Removal of art work is for supply on approval basis. Such
movement shall take place on a delivery challan along with the e-way bill wherever applicable.
The invoice may be issued at the time of actual supply of art work.
.
3) Nature of Supply: The supplies of the art work from one State to another State will be inter-State supplies
and attract IGST in terms of section 5 of the IGST Act, 2017.
This was clarified vide Circular no. 22/22/2017-GST dated 21st December 2017.
Author:
• Artist of Delhi sending their artwork to ART GALLERY for exhibition in Mumbai – Art Gallery exhibit it for supply
• Movement of art work to art gallery = Not a supply – movement under Delivery Challan (Rule 55) & EWB (Rule 168)
• Visitor selecting artwork and purchasing it
• Now, supply is taking place –– now, tax invoice shall be issued - this supply involving no movement
• PoS as per Sec 10(1)(c) of IGST Act= Location of goods at time of delivery to recipient = Mumbai
• thus, this supply by Delhi’s Artist = Inter State Supply = IGST Chargeable
..
Issue which may come up in mind:::

• Whether artist can be labelled as Casual TP in the State where Art Gallery is situated? (it can be so if Art Gallery can
be considered as place of business of artist in other state)
.
• Artist does not arrange any resources (technical or human) at Art Gallery. Thus, Art Gallery shall not be considered as
‘place of business’ of artist.
• Thus, Artist cannot be treated as ‘Casual TP’ of the State in which Art Gallery is situated.
• Where a supplier of goods takes a stall in ‘Trade Fair’ / Some Business Exhibition for making sales therefrom,
whether he becomes casual TP in that case?
• In such case, supplier has arranged resources (technical or human) at Business Exhibition. Thus, such stall shall be
considered as ‘place of business’ of the supplier of goods.
• Thus, he is treated as ‘Casual TP’ of the State in which trade fair is held.
.
4. Applicability of GST on the Superior Kerosene Oil retained for the manufacture of Linear Alkyl Benzene
IOC (Refinery) sending SKO (kerosene oil) to Manufacturer
• Generally supplied through pipeline
• Manufacturer retain 17%, returned balance quantity
• IOC (refinery) raised invoices only for that 17% quantity retained by manufacturer
• Issues:
• Whether the said practice is correct?
View I: Correct – invoice shall be raised only on quantity sold (i.e., 17%)
4
View-2: Incorrect – invoice shall be raised for whole quantity (100%), raise credit note for quantity returned (83%)
and claim adjustment in output tax liability in the period in which credit note is issued (Sec 34)
• .
CBEC /CBIC Circular No. 12/12/2017-GST, dated 26.10.2017

Background:
LAB manufacturers receive superior Kerosene oil (SKO) from, a refinery, say, Indian Oil Corporation (IOC). They
extract n-Paraffin (C9-C13 hydrocarbons) from SKO and return back the remaining of SKO to the refinery.
LAB manufacturers generally receive superior kerosene oil [SKO] from a refinery through a dedicated pipeline;
on an average about 15 to 17% of the total quantity of SKO received from refinery is retained and balance
quantity ranging from 83%-85% is returned back to refinery.
The retained SKO is towards extraction of Normal Paraffin, which is used in the manufacturing of LAB. In this
transaction consideration is paid by LAB manufactures only on the quantity of retained SKO (n-paraffin).
.
Issues:
a. Whether in this transaction GST would be levied on SKO sent by IOC for extracting n-paraffin or only on
the n-paraffin quantity extracted by the LAB manufactures?
b. Whether the return of remaining Kerosene by LAB manufactures would separately attract GST in such
transaction?
.
Clarifications:
a. GST will be payable by the refinery (IOC, in our case) on the value of net quantity of superior kerosene
oil (SKO) retained (i.e., 15% to 17%) for the manufacture of Linear Alkyl Benzene (LAB).
b. The refinery (IOC) would be liable to pay GST on such returned quantity of SKO, when the same is supplied
by it to any other person.
[Delivery Challan = for sending goods, Tax Invoice = For quantity sold in the transaction]
Author:
• IOC (refinery) shall do following:
• Dispatch of SKO – Raise delivery Challan for entire quantity send
[EWB is not required (as transportation is through pipeline, not through motorized conveyance) – Rule 138(14)]
• Sale Materialization – Raise Tax Invoice for quantity sold (15% to 17%) .
5. Fee/amount charged by Consumer Dispute Redressel Commission officer for hearing/registering

complaints of consumer – Whether out of scope of supply?
• Consumer found his product purchased from a dealer is faulty.
• He seeks replacement but dealer refused.
• He filed a complaint with Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission (CDRC).
• CDRC charged fees for registering the complaint.
• Issues:
• Whether such supply falls out of scope of supply as per Sec 7(2) read with Schedule III (Entry 2) or whether GST
shall be applicable on such fee?
View I: Within scope of supply – CDRC is neither Court not Tribunal.
View-2: Out of Scope of Supply– CDRC is like a court (though not a court) – So spirit wise, treatment similar to
fees received by Court/Tribunal shall be given
• .

CBEC /CBIC Circular No. 32/ 6/ 208- GST (Dated 2nd Feb, 2018)
Issue
Is GST leviable on the fee / amount charged in the following situations / cases : —
• A customer pays fees while registering complaints to Consumer Disputes Redressal
Commission office and its subordinate offices. These fees are credited into State Customer
Welfare Fund’s bank account.
• Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission office and its subordinate offices charge penalty in cash
when it is required.
• When a person files an appeal to Consumers Disputes Redressal Commission against order of District
Forum, amount equal to 50% of total amount imposed by the District Forum or Rs. 25000/-, whichever
is less, is required to be paid.
Clarification
• Services by an court or Tribunal established under any law for the time being in force is neither a
supply of goods nor services. Consumer Disputes Redressal Commissions (National / State / District)
may not be tribunals literally as they may not have been set up directly under Article 323B of the
Constitution. However, they are clothed with the characteristics of a tribunal on account of
the following : —
o Statement of objects and reasons as mentioned in the Consumer Protection Bill state that one of
its objects is to provide speedy and simple redressal to consumer disputes, for which a quasi
judicial machinery is sought to be set up at District, State and Central levels. The President of
the District / State / National Disputes Redressal Commissions is a person who has been or is
qualified to be a District Judge, High Court Judge and Supreme Court Judge respectively.
o These Commissions have been vested with the powers of a civil court under CPC for issuing
summons, enforcing attendance of defendants / witnesses, reception of evidence, discovery /
production of documents, examination of witnesses, etc.
o Every proceeding in these Commissions is deemed to be judicial proceedings as per
sections 193/228 of IPC. The Commissions have been deemed tobe a civil court under CrPc.
o Appeals against District Commissions lie to State Commission while appeals against the State
Commissions lie to the National Commission. Appeals against National Commission lie to the
Supreme Court.
.
In view of the aforesaid, it is hereby clarified that fee paid by litigants in the Consumer
Disputes Redressal Commissions are not leviable to GST.
Any penalty imposed by or amount paid to these Commissions will also not attract GST.
.
.
Author:
• Extending the logic of above circular:
• Fees paid for obtaining Advance Ruling from Advance Ruling Authority (AAR) will also not be subject to GST.
• Fees paid for obtaining Advance Ruling from Appellate Authority for Advance Ruling (AAAR) will also not be
subject to GST.

COMPOSITE & MIXED SUPPLY
1. Activity of printing (taxability as supply of goods or supply of services)

.

• Praksh Mishra running a printing press.
• He obtained 2 orders:
o Order from ‘Plaza Restaurant for printing of Napkins (bearing logo of Plaza Restaurant)’
o Order from SUJATA PUBLICATION HOUSE for printing of books / magazines for them
• Mishra will be purchasing paper and other inputs and using those will supply output (napkin/ books) to customers.
.
• Issues:
• Whether supply of Mishra is – supply of Goods or supply of service?
Order I: Supply of napkin – It is essentially sale of napkins.
Order-2: Supply of books/ magazines– Is it also sale of books/ magazines? – No – as Mishra has no right /
authorization to sell books/ magazines (as content is owned by Sujata Publication) – so it is supply of service.
• .
CBEC / CBIC Circular No.11/11/2017-GST

It is clarified that supply of books, pamphlets, brochures, envelopes, annual reports, leaflets,
cartons, boxes etc. printed with logo, design, name, address or other contents supplied by the
recipient of such printed goods, are composite supplies and the question, whether such supplies constitute
supply of goods or services would be determined on the basis of what constitutes the principal supply.
.
 In the case of printing of books, pamphlets, brochures, annual reports, and the like, where only
content is supplied by the publisher or the person who owns the usage rights to the intangible
inputs while the physical inputs including paper used for printing belong to the printer, supply
of printing [of the content supplied by the recipient of supply] is the principal supply and therefore such
supplies would constitute supply of service falling under heading 9989 of the scheme of classification of
services.
 In case of supply of printed envelopes, letter cards, printed boxes, tissues, napkins, wall paper
etc. falling under Chapter 48 or 49, printed with design, logo etc. supplied by the recipient of
goods but made using physical inputs including paper belonging to the printer, predominant
supply is that of goods and the supply of printing of the content [supplied by the recipient of supply] is
ancillary to the principal supply of goods and therefore such supplies would constitute supply of goods falling
under respective headings of Chapter 48 or 49.
.

2. Activity of re-treading of tyres (taxability as supply of goods or supply of services)

[Retread, also known as "recap," or a "remold" is a re-manufacturing process for tires that replace the tread/rubber on worn tires.]
.

.
Order-2: Selling retreaded tyres – (supply of goods or service) – Composite Supply - supply of goods.
• .
Circular No. 34/8/2018-GST

Retreading of tyres (where tyres belong to recipient)**
In re-treading of tyres, which is a composite supply, the pre-dominant element is the process of re-treading
which is a supply of service . Rubber (goods) used for re-treading is an ancillary supply.
Which part of a composite supply is the principal supply, must be determined keeping in view the
nature of the supply involved. Value may be one of the guiding factors in this determination, but
not the sole factor. The primary question that should be asked is what is the essential nature of the
composite supply and which element of the supply imparts that essential nature to the composite supply.
Retreading of tyres (where tyres belong to supplier)

Supply of re-treaded tyres, where the old tyres belong to the supplier of re-treaded tyres, is a supply of
goods (re-treaded tyres under heading 4012 of the Customs Tariff attracting GST @ 28%)
Author:
Retreading of tyres (where tyres belong to recipient)**
Re-treading = (supply of goods/rubber and supply of service/labour) = Composite Supply
CBEC Circular = Treatment as per Sec 8 of CGST Act which provides that determine principal supply and treat the
combination as principal supply)
Author = Treatment as provided by Schedule II (Para 3) which provides that any treatment or process which is supplied
on another person’s goods is a supply of service.

Composition Liability of Manufacturer
 Earlier, CT liability = 2% of TO in the State / UT (which includes exempt as well as non-exempt supplies)
.
 Now, CT liability = 1% of TO in the State / UT (which includes exempt as well as non-exempt supplies)
Composition Liability of Trader of Goods

 Earlier, CT liability = 1% of TO in the State / UT (which includes exempt as well as non-exempt supplies)
.
 Now, CT liability = 1% of TO of taxable supplies of goods in the State / UT (it will excludes exempt supplies)
Note:
o GST Council has mentioned that w.e.f. 1st Jan, 2018, for traders, turnover will be counted only for
supply of taxable goods.
o Thus, ‘taxable supplies of goods’ to be understood to mean ‘supply of taxable goods’.
o Taxable supply = Supply on which GST is leviable under GST Act (thus, even supply of exempted
goods is also taxable supply)
o Supply of taxable goods = Supply of goods on which GST is payable (thus, supply of exempted
goods is not supply of taxable goods)
.
o Since GST Council has stated that ‘taxable supplies of goods’ to be understood to mean ‘supply
of taxable goods’, thus, taxable of exempted goods shall now not be counted into ATO while
computing composition liability of trader.

CBEC/ CBIC Clarifications on issues related to Job Work – issued on 26th March, 2018
.
Sec 2 (68) Job-work

“Job Work” means any treatment or process undertaken by a person on goods* belonging to another registered person*
and the expression “job worker” shall be construed accordingly;
.
Author :
1. Job-Work = Treatment or process undertaken by one person on goods of other persons
[Job-Work = Supply of Service - Schedule II]
2. Person undertaking job-work = Job-worker (may be registered or unregistered)
3. Person on whose goods job-work is being done = Principal (must be registered)
.
Clarifications on issues related to Job Work – issued on 26th March, 2018
Scope of Job-work:
Whether any inputs, other than the goods provided by the principal, can be used by the job worker
for providing the services of job-work?
.
Clarification: The job worker, in addition to the goods received from the principal, can use his own goods for
providing the services of job work.
Requirement of registration for a principal / job worker:
Whether the principal must be a registered person?

.
Clarification:
The provisions of section 143 of the CGST Act are applicable to a registered person. Thus, it is only a registered
person who can send the goods for job work under the said provisions.
• It may also be noted that the registered person (principal) is not obligated to follow the said provisions.
It is his choice whether or not to avail or not to avail of the benefit of these special provisions.
Whether the job-worker must be a registered person?

.
Clarification: Job-worker may be registered or unregistered person.

.
Principal and job-worker within same state:
In case both the principal and the job worker are located in the same State , job worker is required to obtain
registration only if his aggregate turnover, to be computed on all India basis, in a financial year exceeds the
specified threshold limit (i.e. Rs 20 lakhs or Rs. 10 lakhs in case of special category States except J&K).
.
Principal and job-worker in different states:

Where the principal and the job worker are located in different States, the requirement for registration flows from
Sec 24(i) of the CGST Act which provides for compulsory registration of suppliers making any inter-State supply
of services.
• However, exemption from registration has been granted in case the aggregate turnover of the inter- State
supply of taxable services does not exceed Rs 20 lakhs or Rs. 10 lakhs in case of special category States
except J&K in a financial year vide N/N 10/2017 – IT.
.
Therefore, it is clarified that a job worker is required to obtain registration only in cases where his aggregate
turnover, to be computed on all India basis, in a financial year exceeds the threshold limit regardless of whether
the principal and the job worker are located in the same State or in different States.
23

being sent. The same process may be repeated for subsequent movement of the goods to other job
workers.
(iii) Where the goods are returned to the principal by the job worker:
• The job worker should send one copy of the challan received by him from the principal while returning
the goods to the principal after carrying out the job work.

mentioned as the consignee, in terms of rule 46(o) of the CGST Rules.
• The buyer (i.e., the principal) shall issue the challan under rule 45 of the CGST Rules and send the
same to the job worker directly in terms of para (i) above.
• In case of import of goods by the principal which are then supplied directly from the customs
station of import, the goods may move from the customs station of import to the place of
business/premises of the job worker with a copy of the Bill of Entry and the principal shall issue the
challan under rule 45 of the CGST Rules and send the same to the job worker directly.
24
(v) Where goods are returned in piecemeal by the job worker:
In case the goods after carrying out the job work, are sent in piecemeal quantities by a job worker to
another job worker or to the principal, the challan issued originally by the principal cannot be
endorsed and a fresh challan is required to be issued by the job worker.

Rule 45(3) of the CGST Rules provides that the principal is required to furnish the details of challans in
respect of goods sent to a job worker or received from a job worker or sent from one job worker to
another job worker during a quarter in FORM GST ITC-04 by the 25th day of the month succeeding
the quarter or within such period as may be extended by the Commissioner.
It is clarified that it is the responsibility of the principal to include the details of all the challans
relating to goods sent by him to one or more job worker or from one job worker to another and its
return therefrom. The FORM GST ITC-04 will serve as the intimation as envisaged under section 143 of
the CGST Act.
Liability to issue invoice, determination of place of supply and payment of GST
Relevant Legal provisions:

Sec 12 ToS in case of supply of Goods
Sec 13 ToS in case of supply of services
Sec 15 Valuation of supply (of goods or of services)
Sec 31 Issuance of Tax Invoice
Clarification: On conjoint reading of all the provisions, the following is clarified with respect to the
issuance of an invoice, time of supply and value of supply:
(1) Supply of job work services: The job worker, as a supplier of services, is liable to pay GST if he is liable
to be registered.
• He shall issue an invoice at the time of supply of the services as determined in terms of section 13 read
with section 31 of the CGST Act.
• The value of services would be determined in terms of section 15 of the CGST Act and would include not
only the service charges but also the value of any goods or services used by him for supplying the job
work services, if recovered from the principal.
It may be noted that if the job worker is not registered, GST would be payable by the principal on
reverse charge basis in terms of the provisions contained in section 9(4) of the CGST Act. However,
the said provision has been kept in abeyance for the time being.
(2) Supply of goods by the principal from the place of business/ premises of job worker: Section 143
of the CGST Act provides that the principal may supply, from the place of business / premises of a job worker,
inputs after completion of job work or otherwise or capital goods (other than moulds and dies, jigs and fixtures
or tools) within one year or three years respectively of their being sent out, on payment of tax within India,
or with or without payment of tax for exports, as the case may be. This facility is available to the principal
only if he declares the job worker’s place of business / premises as his additional place of business or if the
job worker is registered.
Since the supply is being made by the principal, it is clarified that the time, value and place of
supply would have to be determined in the hands of the principal irrespective of the location of the
job worker’s place of business/premises.
Further, the invoice would have to be issued by the principal.
It is also clarified that in case of exports directly from the job worker’s place of
business/premises, the LUT or bond, as the case may be, shall be executed by the
principal.
25
Illustration: The principal is located in State A, the job worker in State B and the recipient in
State C. In case the supply is made from the job worker’s place of business / premises, the
invoice will be issued by the supplier (principal) located in State A to the recipient located in
State C. The said transaction will be an inter-State supply. In case the recipient is also located
in State A, it will be an intra-State supply.
.
(3) Violation of conditions laid down in section 143: As per the provisions contained in section 143 of the
CGST Act, if the inputs or capital goods (other than moulds and dies, jigs and fixtures or tools) are neither
received back by the principal nor supplied from the job worker’s place of business within the specified time
period, the inputs or capital goods (other than moulds and dies, jigs and fixtures or tools) would be deemed
to have been supplied by the principal to the job worker on the day when such inputs or capital goods were
sent out to the first job worker.
Thus, if the inputs or capital goods are neither returned nor supplied from the job worker’s place of
business / premises within the specified time period, the principal would issue an invoice for the
same and declare such supplies in his return for that particular month in which the time
period of one year / three years has expired. The date of supply shall be the date on which
such inputs or capital goods were initially sent to the job worker and interest for the intervening
period shall also be payable on the tax.
• If such goods are returned by the job worker after the stipulated time period, the
same would be treated as a supply by the job worker to the principal and the job
worker would be liable to pay GST if he is liable for registration in accordance with
the provisions contained in the CGST Act read with the rules made thereunder.
o It may be noted that if the job worker is not registered, GST would be payable
by the principal on reverse charge basis in terms of the provisions contained in section
9(4) of the CGST Act. However, the said provision has been kept in abeyance for the
time being.
Note: There is no requirement of either returning back or supplying the goods from the job worker’s place of

Availability of input tax credit to the principal and the job worker
Doubts have been raised regarding the availability of input tax credit (ITC) to the principal in respect of inputs /
capital goods that are directly received by the job worker.
Doubts have also been raised whether the job worker is eligible for ITC in respect of inputs, etc. used by him in
supplying job work services.
Clarification:
• In view of the provisions contained in section 16 (2)(b) of the CGST Act, the input tax credit would be
available to the principal, irrespective of the fact whether the inputs or capital goods are received by the
principal and then sent to the job worker for processing, etc. or whether they are directly received at the job
worker’s place of business/premises, without being brought to the premises of the principal.
.
• It is also clarified that the job worker is also eligible to avail ITC on inputs, etc. used by him in
supplying the job work services if he is registered.

INPUT SERVICE DISTRIBUTOR
.
1. Invoice of Common Service- received by one of unit (instead of ISD)

 ISD = Office of supplier which distributes credit of input services among its various units registered with same PAN
 Manner of Distribution = Sec 21 of CGST Act
 Invoicing by ISD (distributing ITC) = Rule 54(1) of CGST Rules, 2017
 Recipient unit books ITC on basis of ISD Invoice.
 What if invoice of common service is received by one of the unit/premise registered as taxpayer?
• Solution 1: Such unit shall now registered as a new ISD and then distribute ITC to all.
• Solution-2: Such unit shall transfer ITC to ISD who shall then distribute ITC to all.
Solution 1 is easy and simple.
Law has introduced provisions for materializing solution1.
27
Rule 54 : Tax invoice in SPECIAL CASES
.
(1A) (a) A registered person, having the same PAN and State code as an Input Service
Distributor,
… may issue an invoice or, as the case may be, a credit or debit note to transfer the
credit of common input services to the Input Service Distributor, which shall contain
the following details:-
i. name, address and GSTIN of the registered person having the same PAN and same State
code as the ISD;
ii. a consecutive serial number not exceeding sixteen characters, in one or multiple series,
containing alphabets or numerals or special characters -hyphen or dash and slash
symbolised as “-” and “/” respectively, and any combination thereof, unique for a financial
year;
iii. date of its issue;
iv. GSTIN of supplier of common service and original invoice number whose credit is sought to
be transferred to the Input Service Distributor;
v. name, address and GSTIN of the ISD;
vi. taxable value, rate and amount of the credit to be transferred; and
vii. signature or digital signature of the registered person or his authorized representative.
(b) The taxable value in the invoice issued under clause (a) shall be the same as the value of the
common services.
.
[Inserted vide N/N 3/2018- CT (dated 23 Jan, 2018)]

Transfer of ITC by taxable person in name of ISD
• Sometimes, invoice of common service may be received by taxable person (registered as taxpayer) – say, Delhi’s
branch.
• While different entity is registered as ISD – say, Head Office.
• Rule 54(1A) has been inserted to provide that registered taxable person can avail ITC and then transfer such ITC to
the ISD who will then distribute such common credit among various unit.
• In other words, taxable person (registered as taxpayer) need not himself carry out a separate registration in capacity of
ISD.
 HOWEVER, this special relaxation shall be applicable only if both registered person and the already
registered ISD are having same PAN and State Code.

INVOICE
1. Special Invoicing by Bank/FI or Insurer: Issuance of Consolidated tax invoice is optional (not
mandatory)
1) Rule 54(2) - Banks/FI & Insurer allowed ‘consolidated invoices’ on monthly basis
Rule 54 : Tax invoice in SPECIAL CASES

(1) Invoicing by ISD:
(2) Where the supplier of taxable service is an insurer or a banking company or a financial institution,
including a non-banking financial company,
… the said supplier shall may issue a CONSOLIDATED tax invoice or any other document in lieu thereof,
by whatever name called, for the supply of services made during a month at the end of the month
.
… whether issued or made available, physically or electronically
… whether or not serially numbered, and
… whether or not containing the address of the recipient of taxable service
but containing other information as prescribed under rule 46.
[amended vide N/N 55/2017-CT dated 15th November 2017]

.
Let us first understand the application of Rule 54

Q 1. A customer may avail numerous services from the Bank / insurer in a given taxable period. Is it mandatory for
Banks to issue a tax invoice for each transaction or can the Bank issue a consolidated invoice for the service
rendered during the tax period?
(CBIC – FAQ on Financial Services)
Ans. As per the provisions contained in the Rule 47 of the CGST Rules, 2017 an insurer, a banking company or a financial
institution, including a NBFC may issue invoices within 45 days from the date of supply of service.
Further, rule 54(2) of CGST Rules, 2017 provides that such entities may issue any other document in lieu of the
tax invoice. Accordingly, such entities may issue a consolidated statement/ invoice/ advice to the customer at the
end of the month, with the details of all the charges levied during such month and GST payable thereon.
.
Q 2. When a banking company is not required to serially number its invoices / document for supply of its services,
how will the service recipient get credit for GST on the services provided by the bank?
(CBIC – FAQ on Financial Services)
Ans. Under Rule 54(2) of the CGST Rules, 2017 a banking company or a financial institution including a NBFC or an insurer
can issue an invoice or any other document in lieu thereof whether or not serially numbered and whether or not
containing the address of the recipient but containing other information as mentioned under Rule 46. There is no
restriction on the invoice/document being a consolidated invoice/document but it must bear an identification
number, which need not necessarily be serially numbered. The recipient of service will get the credit for GST so long
as the bank, etc. uploads the details of the invoice / document under that number with GSTIN of the recipient in its
statement if FORM GSTR-1.
.
Q 3. Whether commission paid to insurance agents shall be construed as supplies received under Section 9(3) of
CGST Act, 2017? If yes, whether the Life Insurance Company can raise a consolidated invoice for such
commission payments?
.
Ans. Supplies received from Insurance Agents and provides for the Insurance Company to pay GST on such supplies under
Section 9(3) of the CGST Act, 2017. Insurance company is liable to pay GST as RCM liability.
In such cases, the insurance company may issue agent-wise consolidated invoice at the end of the month for the
supply of services received during the month. [rule 54(2) of CGST Rules, 2017]
29
 The original rules required the insurers/banks/financial institutions/non-banking financial companies to mandatorily
issue invoices even though the same might have been without the serial number and the address of the recipient.
Consolidated invoicing allowed.
o Earlier, the suppliers were mandated to issue consolidated tax invoice for supply of services made during the
month at the end of the month.
o However, vide N/N 55/2017-CT dated 15th November 2017, this mandatory requirement was changed to optional.
So, these categories of persons were provided an option only to issue consolidated invoices.
2. Transport of Goods: Tax Invoice / Bill of Supply is must, even if EWB is not required in any case
Rule 55-A : Tax Invoice or bill of supply to accompany transport of goods.

.
The person-in- charge of the conveyance shall carry a copy of the tax invoice or the bill of supply
issued in accordance with the provisions of
– rules 46, (Rule 46 makes provision for issuance of tax invoice)
– 46A or (Rule 46-A makes provision for issuance of tax invoice-cum-bill of supply)
– 49 (Rule 49 makes provision for issuance of bill of supply)
in a case where such person is not required to carry an E-WAY BILL under these rules.
[inserted vide N/N 3/2018-CT dated 23rd Jan, 2018]

 Rule 55 seeks to clarify/ emphasize that tax invoice / bill of supply shall be mandatory for transport of goods even if
EWB is not required for transportation of goods in a particular case.
3. Movement of goods of value exceeding specified value – EWB mandatory
Rule 138 Information to be furnished prior to commencement of movement of goods and

.
generation of EWB
Rule 138-A Documents and devices to be carried by a person-in-charge of a conveyance.

ACCOUNTS AND RECORDS
1. Maintenance of books of accounts relating to additional place of business by a principal or auctioneer

for the purpose of auction of tea, coffee, rubber etc.
Difficulties were being faced by a principal and an auctioneer in relation to

maintaining books of accounts at each and every additional place of
business related to stock of goods like tea, coffee, rubber, etc. meant for
supply through an auction.
As per the first proviso of section 35(1) of the CGST Act, 2017 both the
principal and the auctioneer are required to maintain the books of
accounts relating to their additional place(s) of business in such
places.
It was represented that both the principal as well as the auctioneer may be
allowed to maintain the books of accounts relating to the additional place(s)
of business at their principal place of business itself.
So, the matter was clarified vide Circular no. 23/23/2017-GST dated 21st December 2017.
(a) The principal and the auctioneer of tea, coffee, rubber etc. are required to declare warehouses where such
goods are stored as their additional place of business. The buyer is also required to disclose such warehouse
as his additional place of business if he wants to store the goods purchased through auction in such
warehouses.
(b) Both the principal and the auctioneer are required to maintain the books of accounts relating to each and
every place of business in that place itself as per the first proviso to sub-section (1) of section 35 of the CGST
Act. However, in case difficulties are faced in maintaining the books of accounts, it is clarified that they may
maintain the books of accounts relating to the additional place(s) of business at their principal place of
business instead of such additional place(s).
(c) Such principal or auctioneer shall intimate their jurisdictional proper officer in writing about the maintenance
of books of accounts relating to additional place(s) of business at their principal place of business.
(d) Further, the principal or the auctioneer shall be eligible to avail input tax credit subject to the fulfilment of
other provisions of the Act and the rules made thereunder.
It is further clarified that this Circular is applicable to the supply of tea, coffee, rubber, etc. where the auctioneer
claims ITC in respect of the supply made to him by the principal before the auction of such goods and the said
goods are supplied only through auction.

TIME OF SUPPLY
.
1. ToS for Supplier of Goods – Sec 12

.
Through Sec 148 (special procedure for certain persons), CG has made advances non taxable at time of
receipt of advances – GST shall be payable only when goods are actually supplied.
Sec 12 (2):
Time of supply in case of goods has been stated to be earlier of the following dates:
a) Date of issue of invoice or the last date on which he is required to issue the invoice with respect to the supply;
b) Date on which supplier receives the payment with respect to the supply;
Sec 148: Special procedure for certain processes

The Government may, on the recommendations of the Council, and subject to such conditions and safeguards as
may be prescribed*, notify
… certain classes of registered persons, and
… the special procedures to be followed by such persons including those with regard to registration,
furnishing of return, payment of tax and administration of such persons.
Notification issued
N/N 40/2017-CT (dated 13th Oct, 2017) (amended on 15th Nov)
.
In exercise of the powers conferred by section 148 of the CGST Act, 2017, the CG, on the recommendations of
the Council, hereby notifies
… the registered person who did not opt for the composition levy under section 10 of the said
Act
.
as the class of persons
… who shall pay the central tax2 on the outward supply of GOODS at the time of supply as
specified in Section 12 (2)(a) of the said Act.
.

 Normal Supplier of Goods (not operating under composition scheme) – paying GST on monthly basis
• The introduction of the date of payment as the time of supply under GST was a completely new concept for
supplier of goods.
 Under the Excise and VAT law, the person manufacturing/selling goods did not consider the date of payment
at all while making the payment of taxes.
 The introduction of GST led to an additional process for these persons supplying goods. Receipt of advance
led to the time of supply to arise under GST.
 Lack of proper knowledge of this rule, infrastructural and administrative difficulties faced by supplier of goods
particularly in the SME segment prompted the Government to remove the condition of date of payment while
determining the time of supply. However, this was made in a phased manner.
• Vide N/N 66/2017-CT dated 15th November 2017, all persons making supply of goods if they have not opted
for composition scheme need to pay taxes considering only (a) above. Hence all supplier of goods can consider
the time of supply as date of issue or last date of issue of invoice without considering the date of payment.
.
* Composition supplier is not covered under notification. He shall be liable to pay GST on advances received by him.
• Possible logic is that he never recovers composition tax from recipient.
2 Notification under Integrated tax has not been issued -- This is an unintended omission- Practically, same treatment is being
allowed to inter-state supply also.
32
Special procedure is applicable only for supplier whose ToS is determined as per Sec 12(2)
.
• ToS for supply of service is determined as per Sec 13.

• Thus, above provision as to non-taxation of advances received is not applicable to supply of services.
• Supplier of services are still liable to pay GST on advances received by him.
.
• ToS for supply of goods is determined as per Sec 12. If supply of goods is subject to RCM, then ToS for RCM liability
is determined as per Sec 12(3)
• Thus, above provision as to non-taxation of advances received is not applicable to RCM situation.
• Thus advances paid for receiving supply of goods which are subject to RCM will attract GST liability.
2. ToS for Supplier of Services – Sec 13
Through Sec 148 (special procedure for certain persons), CG has changed ToS in case of transaction involving
cross supply of services between landowner and builder/ developer / construction company.
Real estate developers usually do not have ownership of land when developing a property. It enters into an agreement
with the land owner for transfer of development rights on the land. Against such development rights, the landowner can
either be given share in the revenue of the total flats that will be sold, or he may be given a certain number of the flats
through an area sharing agreement. In an area sharing agreement, there were quite a few areas of concern. One of the
biggest concerns was that the time of supply of services in this case was very difficult to determine. If the date of joint
development agreement would have been the time of supply, then determining the valuation on such date would have
been very difficult. Also, the blockage of working capital for payment of taxes even before the commencement of
construction was another issue which was prevailing. To settle such issues, the government issued N/N 4/2018- CT
(Rate) dated 25th Jan 2018 and N/N 4/2018-IT (Rate) dated 25th Jan 2018 regarding time of supply in case of
construction service against transfer of development right and vice versa.
• The time of supply has been deferred to the time when the possession or right in the complex is transferred
through a conveyance deed or an allotment letter. This date will allow the valuation to be more certain as
compared to the date of joint development agreement. Also, the blockage of working capital is cushioned due
to the deferment in the payment of taxes especially for landowners who intend to keep flats for their own use.
N/N 4/2018-CT (Rate) + N/N 4/2018-IT (Rate) (dated 25th Jan, 2018)
In exercise of the powers conferred by section 148 of the CGST Act, 2017, the CG, on the recommendations of
the Council, hereby notifies the following classes of registered persons, namely-
.
(a) registered persons who supply development rights to a developer, builder, construction company or any
other registered person against consideration, wholly or partly, in the form of construction service of complex,
building or civil structure; and
(b) registered persons who supply construction service of complex, building or civil structure to supplier of
development rights against consideration, wholly or partly, in the form of transfer of development rights,
as the registered persons in whose case the liability to pay central tax3 on supply of the said services, on
the consideration received
… in the form of construction service referred to in clause (a) above and
… in the form of development rights referred to in clause (b) above,
shall arise at the time when the said developer, builder, construction company or any other registered person,
as the case may be, transfers possession or the right in the constructed complex, building or civil structure,
to the person supplying the development rights by entering into a conveyance deed or similar instrument
(for example allotment letter).
3 If supply is inter-state supply attracting IGST – then same ToS has been prescribed by N/N 4/2018-IT.

In exercise of the powers conferred by Sec 148 of the CGST Act, 2017, the CG, on the recommendations of the
Council, notifies the registered persons having aggregate turnover of up to 1.5 crore rupees in the
preceding financial year or the current financial year, as the class of registered persons who shall follow
the special procedure as detailed below for furnishing the details of outward supply of goods or services
or both -
- They may file GSTR-1 on Quarterly basis.
Clarification: Circular no. 26/26/2017-GST dated 29th December 2017

 It may be noted here that the registered person whose aggregate turnover is less than Rs. 1.5 crores have the option to
choose whether the return GSTR 1 will be filed quarterly or monthly. Once he chooses to file return on monthly/quarterly
basis, the registered person will not have the option to change the return filing periodicity for the entire financial year.
.
 In cases where the registered person wrongly reports his aggregate turnover and opts to file FORM GSTR-1 on quarterly
basis, he may be liable for punitive action under the CGST Act, 2017. This has been clarified as per.
3. Late fees for filing belated return:

 Sec 47 provides for levy of late fees for belated filing of statement / return / annual return.
 Belated filing of annual return – Late fee is Rs 100/per day upto 0.25% of TO
 Belated filing of monthly/quarterly statement/ returns – Late fee is Rs 100/per day upto Rs 5000
 Sec 128 provides for waiver (full or partial) of late fees by CG (upon recommendation of Council)
 Waiver has been granted vide N/N 4/2018-CT.
 Considering waiver, new applicable late fee is
 Reduced Late fee= Rs 25 per day (upto Rs 5000)
 In case of nil return, reduced rate fee shall be Rs 10 per day (upto Rs 5000)
 Late fee will be double: [Late fee u/Sec 47 of CGST] + [Late fee u/Sec 47 of SGST Act]
 Thus, normally if GSTR is filed belatedly, then late fee shall be Rs 50 per day (subject to maximum of Rs 10,000).
 ISD – return filing – GSTR-6

 Reduced Late fee = [Rs 25 for failure to file in CGST + Rs 25 per day in SGST]

EXPORTS
1. Zero rated supplies – supply under Bond/ LuT without payment of GST
.
As per Section 16(3)(a) of the IGST Act, 2017 provides for supply without payment of GST but upon execution of
bond/ LuT. (Bond/LuT submission shall be governed by Rule 96-A of CGST Rules)
• Such supplier can claim ITC – Sec 16(2) of IGST Act & Sec 17(2) of CGST Act
• Such supplier is entitled to claim refund of ITC – Sec 16(3)(a) of IGST Act
• ITC refund shall be subject to compliance with Sec 54 of CGST Act
o Refund procedure as specified in Sec 54 read with Rule 89(4), (4A) & (4B) shall be complied with.
o Conditions for claiming refund as stated in Sec 54(3) shall also be complied with.
.
• Issue: Whether every supplier (of goods / services) can opt for execution of LUT instead of Bond?
.
N/N 37/2017-CT dated 4th October 2017

all registered persons shall be eligible to furnish a LUT except those who have been prosecuted for any
offence under the GST or the earlier laws wherein the tax evaded exceeds Rs. 250 lakhs
• Issue: What shall be the validity period of LUT?

.
N/N 37/2017-CT dated 4th October 2017

The LUT shall be valid for the whole financial year in which it is tendered.
• Issue: What shall be the manner of submission of LUT?

.
Circular no. 40/14/2018-GST dated 6th April 2018

• The facility to furnish LUT has become active on the GST portal. So, one can directly make an application
for acceptance of LUT online. The authorized signatory registered on the GST portal can act as the signing
authority for application of such LUT.
• The registered person needs to fill and submit Form GST RFD 11 on the common portal. An LUT shall be
deemed to be accepted as soon as an acknowledgement for the same bearing Application Reference
Number is generated online. In this situation no documents need to be physically submitted to the
jurisdictional office for acceptance of LUT
• If it is discovered that an exporter whose LUT has been so accepted was ineligible to furnish an LUT, then
the LUT will be liable for rejection. Once rejected, it shall be deemed to have been rejected ab initio. This
has been clarified vide.
• Issue: Whether Bond/LUT may be submitted post-export?

.
Circular no. 40/14/2018-GST dated 6th April 2018

• Rule 96-A requires submission of bond/LuT prior to making exports.
 It had been brought to the notice of the Board that in some cases, such zero-rated supplies had been made
before filing the LUT and refund claims for unutilized input tax credit have been filed.
 In this regard, it is emphasized that the substantive benefits of zero rating may not be denied where it has
been established that exports in terms of the relevant provisions have been made. The delay in furnishing
of LUT in such cases may be condoned and the facility for export under LUT may be allowed on ex post
facto basis taking into account the facts and circumstances of each case.
37
• Issue: Even exempt supply is eligible for benefit of zero-rated supplies (Sec 16(2) of IGST Act). if outward
supply is exempt from GST, whether still Bond/LuT will be required to avail benefits associated with
zero-rated supply?
CBEC Circular 45/19/ 2018- GST

• Bond/LUT is not required in case of supply of exempted goods.
… As per section 16(2) of the IGST Act, ITC may be availed for making zero rated supplies, notwithstanding
that such supply is an exempt supply. Whereas, as per section 2 (47) of the CGST Act, exempt supply
includes non-taxable supply. Further, as per section 16(3) of the IGST Act, a registered person making
zero rated supply shall be eligible to claim refund when he either makes supply of goods or services or
both under bond or letter of undertaking (LUT) or makes such supply on payment of integrated tax.
.
… However, in case of zero rated supply of exempted or non-GST goods, the requirement for
furnishing a bond or LUT cannot be insisted upon.
… It is thus, clarified that in respect of refund claims on account of export of non-GST and
exempted goods without payment of integrated tax; LUT/bond is not required..

 Rule 96 (10) of the CGST Rules seeks to prevent an exporter, who is receiving goods from
suppliers availing the benefit of certain specified notifications under which they supply goods
without payment of tax or at reduced rate of tax, from exporting goods under payment of
integrated tax. This is to ensure that the exporter does not utilise the input tax credit availed
on other domestic supplies received for making the payment of integrated tax on export of
goods.
 However, the said restriction is not applicable to an exporter who has procured goods from
suppliers without availing benefit of any of the above notifications.

of services. In case of export of goods, realization of consideration is not a pre-condition. In rule 89 (2) of

required in case of export of services whereas, in case of export of goods, a statement containing the number
and date of shipping bills or bills of export and the number and the date of the relevant export invoices is

envisaged in the law and should not be insisted upon.

services were received, and ITC has been availed. Similarly, there may be cases where exports
may have been made in a period, but no ITC has been availed in the said period. The above
referred rule, taking into account such scenarios, defines relevant period in the context of the
refund claim and does not link it to a tax period.
 In this regard, it is hereby clarified that the exporter, at his option, may file refund claim for one

month(s) / quarter(s) for which refund claim has been filed, however, cannot spread across
