The appeal has to be heard and the order is to be passed to sanction the refund in cash. If the amount of Cenvat through the order is transferred to GST through TRAN-1 iimmediately by revising the TRAN-1, it gets reflected and can be utilised for payment of GST.

GST UPDATE ON APPLICABILITY OF GST WHERE BOTH SUPPLIER AND RECIPIENT OF RENTING OF IMMOVABLE PROPERTY SERVICE ARE LOCATED OUTSIDE INDIA AND PROPERTY IS SITUATED IN INDIA

Goods and Services Tax – GST – By: – Pradeep Jain – Dated:- 15-11-2017 – The provisions for determining place of supply are given in chapter V of IGST Act, 2017 which covers section 10 to 14 of IGST Act,. Section 12 determines the place of supply of services where the location of supplier of services and the location of the recipient of services is in India. Thus, section 12 will apply only where the location of supplier as well as the recipient is in India. Similarly, section 13 determines the place of supply of services where the location of the supplier of services or the location of the recipient of services is outside India. Thus, this section prescribes the provisions for determining the place of supply in case where either the location of supplier or the location of recipient of service is outside India. This section uses the word or , therefore, there arises a question as to which section will apply in case location of both recipient of service as well as supplier of service i

se, there are divergent views of experts, one being that the given case is outside the purview of GST as both the supplier and recipient are outside . In this regard, there is another view which states that in this case, the section 13 will not apply at all as this transaction is out of purview of GST law. In this regard, it is worthwhile to mention here that CGST will be levied if transaction falls in charging section 9 of CGST Act, 2017 and IGST will be levied if the transaction falls in purview of charging section 5 of IGST Act, 2017. Section 9 of CGST Act, 2017; there shall be levied a tax called the central goods and services tax on all intra-State supplies of goods or services or both… Likewise, charging section 5 of IGST Act, 2017 states that there shall be levied a tax called the integrated goods and services tax on all inter-State supplies of goods or services or both.. Therefore, to fall in the provisions of CGST Act and IGST Act; there has to be either intra-state or inter

ted to be a supply of services in the course of inter-State trade or commerce. This section is also not applicable as under section 2(11) of IGST Act, 2017, import of service is there if the service provider is located outside India, service recipient is located in India and place of supply is in India. In the given case, both service provider and recipient are located outside India, therefore, this clause is not applicable. Section 7(5):-(5) Supply of goods or services or both,- (a) when the supplier is located in India and the place of supply is outside India; (b) to or by a Special Economic Zone developer or a Special Economic Zone unit; or (c) in the taxable territory, not being an intra-State supply and not covered elsewhere in this section, shall be treated to be a supply of goods or services or both in the course of inter-State trade or commerce.

Form GSTR-3B of GST – Boon or Curse

Goods and Services Tax – GST – By: – Sanjeev Singhal – Dated:- 15-11-2017 Last Replied Date:- 21-11-2017 – Form GSTR-3B is summary return inserted by Government vide Rule 61 of the CGST Rules,2017 in lieu of Form -GSTR-3 . It is a summary return in place of GSTR-3. Form was introduced as time gap arrangement to collect the tax from the payer of tax. Since all the periodical monthly return were delayed and tax payers were not able to understand and file the returns on time. Government has come out with the temporary solution to introduce Form-3B and start collecting the tax. This return was not thought of at the time of making the GST Act. Moreover this return is so poorly drafted which is full of deficiency. One of the most dangerous part of the return is that after submit the return you can not make changes. Pay off section of the return is made after the submission of the return means thereby if you did any mistake and then you are caught and struck. Now I will elaborate the history

ted 08.08.2017. After that Notification no. 35 dated 15.09.2017 was issued where the date of filing the Form GSTR-3B was extended to December,2017. After that in GST council meeting dated 10.11.2017 it is said that all taxpayers would file return in FORM GSTR-3B along with payment of tax by 20th of the succeeding month till March, 2018 Looking at the history it may be said that this great anomaly of the Government that this temporary return was adopted as tool for collecting the payment because normal return GSTR-1, 2,and 3 could not have been filed because of the deferment of due dates. Standing of GSTR -3B in CGST Act and Rules , 2017 As per the CGST Rules ,2017 , Clause 5 of the Rules 61 States that where the time limit for furnishing the return GSTR-1 and GSTR-2 mentioned in section 37 and Section -38 respectively is extended and the circumstances so warrant , the commissioner may by notification specify the manner and conditi

section of Eligible ITC , for claiming ITC you have to fill the figure in sub clause -v of clause -4 and instead by mistake you fill the figure one line down which is of clause -B-1 then impact of the same shall be double. Instead of claiming ITC the same shall convert in to liability. Suppose you fill the figure of ₹ 10000 wrongly in clause-B then liability shall be increased by 20000. And if you submitted the return and next stage is payoff . For the said mistake you need to pay ₹ 20000 first and then you can file the Form-3B. Means thereby a small mistake can lead you to pay heavy amount and there is no recourse to it. Moreover there is no provision of filing the revised return. Why I am saying it is wrong frame work. First of all one should prepare the return fully including the pay off portion. Means thereby total liability under the return should have been knock off by ITC or out of cash as the case may be. And after the preview section , return should be

sumed that none of the above said returns will be filed on due date till 31.3.2018. Provision of Quarterly Return to be filed by small and medium businesses Clashing with Form-3B Contents of GST council Meeting on 06.10.2017 To facilitate the ease of payment and return filing for small and medium businesses with annual aggregate turnover up to ₹ 1.5 crore , it has been decided that such taxpayers shall be required to file quarterly returns in FORM GSTR-1, 2,and 3 and pay taxes only on a quarterly basis, starting from the Third Quarter of this Financial Year i.e. October-December, 2017. The registered buyers from such small taxpayers would be eligible to avail ITC on a monthly basis. The due dates for filing the quarterly returns for such taxpayers shall be announced in due course. Meanwhile, all taxpayers will be required to file FORM GSTR 3B on a monthly basis till December, 2017. All taxpayers are also required to file FORM GSTR-1, 2,and 3 for

means that for the Quarter October to December, 2017 the payment shall be due on 20.1.2018. If the Form -3B to be filed by all taxpayer including the quarterly taxpayer one need to pay the taxes on monthly basis. This is totally contradictory to provision of GST act and rules thereof. Matching Concept on Stake Once the return of small and medium business started filing on quarterly basis how the GSTR-2 shall be auto drafted . Registered Person buying from the small dealer can not be matched as small dealer will files their return on Quarterly basis. One registered person is filing return on monthly basis and another is filing on quarterly basis where the matching concept stands and how the GSTR-2A will be created. So auto drafted concept of GST will be in loop and basic fundamental concept behind the GST will collapse. It is very clear that all the decision of recent GST council is in air and nothing material has so far produced . Government need to seriously pla

ection (1) of Section 8 is registration under the CST Act. Consequent upon migration to the GST regime, the registration granted earlier under the CST Act became automatically invalid. 4. New registration can be granted under Section 7(1) of the Act only if a dealer is liable to pay tax on account of inter-state sales of the goods enumerated in clause (d) of Section 2 of the CST Act. Similarly, registration can also be granted to dealers who are liable to pay tax under the OVAT Act. Under no other circumstances, grant of registration can be considered. 5. Without registration, making inter-state purchase availing the concessional rate prescribed under sub-section (1) of Section 8 is simply not possible. 6. The recent clarification issued by

m of power. On the other hand, the said clarification does not dispense with the requirement of registration under the Act for availing the rate prescribed in Section 8 (1). It is reiterated that registration under the Act is the primary condition for a dealer to avail the rate prescribed in Section 8 (1). Therefore, the dealers who are no more liable to pay tax under the CST Act or under the OVAT Act cannot be considered for grant of registration. Consequently, they cannot make inter-state purchase of any of these six goods against Form C. Therefore, it is hereby re-iterated that all the instructions contained in the CCT Circular No. 12539/CT dated 17.08.2017 stand intact even after issue of the above said clarification by Government of In
