Reverse charge Sec.9(3) CGST Act'17, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[illayyear yanapu]

Dear sir,

As we going through the Sec.9(3) of CGST Act'17, it is stating that The Government may, on the recommendations of the council, by notification, specify categories of supply of goods or services or both, the tax on which shall be paid on reverse charge basis by the recipient of such goods or services or both and all the provisions of this Act shall apply to such recipient as if he is the person liable for paying the tax in relation to the supply of such goods or services or both.

Here, recipient means un-registered dealer and/or registered dealer?

Even if such specified supply of goods/services/both provided by the registered person to another register person, is recipient will pay tax on reverse charge basis? If yes, how registered person i.e.(Service Provider) will show there turnover in GST return because tax on such service was paid by recipient.

If all these were borne by the recipient let me know intention of introducing Reverse charge Mechanism.

Thank you,

Illayyear

Under RCM in respect of Services notified vide notification No.13/17-CT(Rate) dated 28.6.17, GST is to be paid by the receiver of service irrespective of the fact that both are registered. In your example a banking company or financial institution or a non banking financial company will pay as receiver under RCM.

[KASTURI SETHI]

The issue of supply of service by unregistered person to registered person where registered person is to pay GST is as per Section 9(4) of CGST Act and this is in addition to Notification No. 13/17-CT(Rate) dated 28.6.17

[KASTURI SETHI]

Regarding the manner of accounting turnover in this aspect, Section 2(6) of the CGST Act, provides that value of inward supplies on which tax is payable by a person on reverse charge basis is not to be included in the aggregate turnover of any person supplying goods or or services or both.
