The company is required to pay GST under FCM inasmuch as there is no specific exemption like sponsorship of recognised sports event is available to the company. - Reply By Nikhil Virkar - The Reply = I am aligned with Kasturi sir. RCM will not be applicable since sponsorship service is provided to an individual and nor to any body corporate. FCM is applicable since this is taxable services and provided by body corporate which sure have turnover beyond threshold limit and transaction is not covered under exemption Notification. - Reply By Ganeshan Kalyani - The Reply = I too agree with the .....

I apologize for my initial view. - Reply By Padmanathan Kollengode - The Reply = Company is receiving the income, therefore is the supplier of service. (it is presumed that company is registered under GST). The unregistered individual is the recipient of service. Therefore, the said transaction will not be covered under RCM.
