GST on sub-contracted works contracts: 18% rate upheld, differential tax reimbursement ordered, and refund claim left for reconciliation.
Case-Laws
GST
GST on sub-contracted works contracts was treated as chargeable at 18%, and that rate was not reopened in the present writ petitions. The sub-contractor was held entitled to reimbursement of the differential tax from the main contractor on the same basis as the earlier order, and was allowed to issue post-supply debit notes; debit notes issued after 01.01.2021 were to be recognised in the year of issue under Circular No.160/16/2021-GST. The main contractor was directed to pay the differential amount within six weeks, while the sub-contractor's statutory liability to pay tax to the department remained unaffected. The refund claim based on alleged double payment was left to departmental reconciliation.
