GST IMPACT ON LIQUOR INDUSTRY

Goods and Services Tax – GST – By: – Dr. Sanjiv Agarwal – Dated:- 15-7-2017 Last Replied Date:- 27-7-2017 – It is a fact that GST which has been introduced in India w.e.f. 01.07.2017 has kept out all forms of alcoholic beverages (e.g. beer, whiskey or wine) out of its ambit and as such anybody would believe that GST will not impact alco-beverages and that alco-beverages may enjoy neutrality so far as taxes are concerned. Simply put, taxes on liquor are going to be same in GST era, as they are at present. But business may not be the same as it is done today as GST would bring in certain compelling changes for alco-beverages industry, impacting the costs and eventually the prices. Legally speaking, alcoholic beverages meant for human consumption are out of the scope of Goods and Services Tax (GST) net and anybody who knows this would understand that there can not be any new impact, whatsoever, on alco-beverages in GST regime. However, this may not actually happen. Let's look at how

puts) and services which go into the manufacture of liquor may go up and become part of the cost. This shall invariably happen as taxes would form part of cost. The only exception could be grain spirit and grapes on which GST may not apply. However, another major input, molasses has been placed in highest tax bracket of 28 percent. All other inputs like chemicals, colouring agents and other consumables will also suffer GST of 5-18 percent. Coming to services, almost all services, right from taking approvals and licenses from the Government to distribution in market would be liable to levy of GST. For example, if you have taken a distillery on lease, that lease will suffer GST. If you produce on job work basis, that job work would be subject to tax. Even assignment of 'brand' by the brand owner on temporary basis for production would be liable to levy of GST. Then costs of production, marketing, distribution, advertisements, cargo handling, packaging, warehousing, transportation

dded Tax (VAT) when sold. Thus, the industry would be subject to same taxation as was applicable prior to July 1, 2017. While this segment of economy continues to reel under existing taxes, they would also be subject to levy of GST on: All inputs which are covered under levy of GST, Input services which go into rendering of supply of goods or services in relation to alco-beverages, and Certain fees payable for licenses and permits to State Government or local bodies which do not form part of taxes on which tax would be payable. The alco-beverage supplies are effected through licensed shops, bars, permit rooms, restaurants, hotels etc in one or the other form. So far as 'only sale' of liquor or alco-beverages are concerned (say, from shops), the taxation is simple, no GST at all but VAT on full supply value. However, where liquor is served at a place such as bar, restaurant, hotel etc. along with other food and beverages, the taxability may become complex and this may create new

/ drinks (18%) and aerated water / drinks (@28% + cess). One would have to decide whether such supplies are mixed supplies (artificially bundled) or composite supplies (naturally bundled). Sale of liquor from mini bar in a hotel room would be considered as a pure sale and may not be subject to GST but State VAT only. It would be desirable to conceive bundling of products where tax confusions are best avoided. Also, whenever there is a doubt on taxability or rate of tax, bills or invoices may be better split and tax charged accordingly. The slogan of 'one market one tax' does not apply to alco-beverages as this sector will continue to live with many taxes (VAT, State Excise and of Course GST on various inputs, input services and capital goods) and have prohibition of 'one market' (as each State will have its own tax laws so far as liquor is concerned). Though one can argue that demand for potable liquor to large extent is income in elastic, yet it will face the rigors of

SCOPE AND MEANING OF SUPPLY IN GST

Goods and Services Tax – GST – By: – Dr. Sanjiv Agarwal – Dated:- 15-7-2017 Last Replied Date:- 15-7-2017 – Statutory Provisions Section 7 of CGST Act 2017 provides for scope of supply as under: (1) For the purposes of this Act, the expression supply includes- (a) all forms of supply of goods or services or both such as sale, transfer, barter, exchange, licence, rental, lease or disposal made or agreed to be made for a consideration by a person in the course or furtherance of business; (b) import of services for a consideration whether or not in the course or furtherance of business; (c) the activities specified in Schedule I, made or agreed to be made without a consideration; and (d) the activities to be treated as supply of goods or supply of services as referred to in Schedule II.

rm Supply has been defined in an inclusive manner. The word includes in definition is used to enlarge the meaning of the words or phrases occurring in the body. Thus the specific transactions listed in Section 7 are only illustrative and the definition would be widened to include other similar kind of transactions. It may be noted that the term transfer used in the definition of supply has not been used in rest of GST law. Whereas the term removal has been defined in the Act but the same has not been included in the definition of supply. The provisions in section 31 in respect of issuance of invoice are in reference to removal. The term transfer included in the definition of supply can be read as including removal also. The barter is different from exchange only to the extent that in barter goods and/or services are exchanged for goods and/or services. In exchange, goods and/or services besides other goods and/or services could also be exchanged for property. Thus, exchange is a wider

party agrees to convey an estate in property to another person for a consideration. The lease could be of immovable property or movable property. In the contract of lease, the ownership is not transferred and is retained by the lessor but the possession and right to use is transferred to the other party called lessee. Though the terms rental and leasing are used inter-changeably, there is a slight difference in the two. Lease is a contract to rent an asset for a set period of time and for set terms and conditions. Lease is generally for a longer period of time in which both the parties are required to observe terms and conditions of lease provided in the lease agreement. Disposal means alienate the ownership of the goods. Example: Sharp Limited is a manufacturer of calculators. It decided to donate 1000 calculators to a school. This transaction would be called disposal of calculator (finished goods) by Sharp Limited. The words agreed to be made have been provided in the definition of

tion for the purpose of GST. Any subsidy received from Central or State Government would not be includable in taxable value but subsidy received from any other source which is linked to the product will be part of taxable consideration. The taxability of deposits will depend on the treatment given to such deposits. In case these deposits are not adjustable, then these will not become part of consideration but in case some kind of adjustments are made in the deposit amount, then such deposit will be considered as advance payment received and would be taxable. Any transaction of supply of goods and/or services to be taxable should be in the course or furtherance of business. In case the supply is determined not made in the course or furtherance of business, it will not be leviable to GST. The terms commerce and trade are often used inter-changeably. While commerce refers to large scale business activity, while trade describes commercial traffic within a state or a community. Import of se

Importation of services by a taxable person from a related person or any of his establishment outside India, in the course or furtherance of business. The transactions of supply between a principal and agent and also between two branches of the same person would be considered as a taxable supply. The transactions of stock transfers would become taxable in GST. In respect of importation of services by a taxable person, it is important to note that the importation of services for a consideration has been considered as taxable supply in section 7(1)(b) and importation of services without consideration from a related person or own establishment located outside India has been considered taxable under Schedule I. Hence, importation of service without consideration by a non-taxable person would not be taxable. Supplies under Schedule II Presently,
