The person carrying the goods for such supply can carry the invoice book with him so that he can issue the invoice once the supply is fructified. All such supplies, where the supplier carries goods from one State to another and supplies them in a different State, will be inter-state supplies and attract IGST in terms of Section 5 of the Integrated Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017. . It is also clarified that this clarification would be applicable to all goods supplied under similar situations. [ C. B.
