Dear Rahul Ghaikwad,

The sale of MEIS certificate would be treated as exempted supply w.e.f 13th October 2017 by virtue of sl.no.122A of notification no.02/2017 C.T(R) dated 28th June 2017, as amended by notification no.35/2017 C.T(R) dated 13th October 2017.

However, with the benefit of exemption you should be vigilant that Rule 42 would be applicable if you provide both taxable and exempted supplies and you need to reverse the common credits in proportion to taxable and exemted supplies. Kindly refer rule 42 of CGST rules 2017.
