Goods and Services Tax – GST – By: – Dr. Sanjiv Agarwal – Dated:- 1-5-2018 – Input Service Distributor (ISD) in GST The term Input Service distributor has been defined in section 2(61) of the CGST Act, 2017 to mean: (a) An office of the supplier of goods and/or services or both, (b) Which receives tax invoices issued under Section 31, (c) Towards receipt of input services, (d) Who issues tax invoices or such other documents for distributing the credit of CGST, SGST, IGST paid on such services, (e) To supplier of taxable goods and services having same PAN as that of such office.

In view of this restriction, it can be concluded that ISD is not eligible to receive any service like that of an Advocate, on which tax is payable on reverse charge basis.

It claims the input tax credit on all the input services availed by it.
