[Kaustubh Karandikar]

XYZ(India) paying consideration to PQR, Germany (Parent company) for providing technical knowledge, designing of product and after sale service in relation to products manufactured by XYZ in India. The amount payable to PQR would depend on sales value of goods sold by XYZ. Is XYZ liable to pay GST on the amount paid to PQR?

This amounts to import of service which is taxable under reverse charge mechanism.

This could be subject to RCM. However, principal supply to be identified in this case to decide on the category of service, HSN, rate and place of supply to finalise. Terms of the agreement to be read thoroughly for this.
