Non-GST supply means non-taxable supply e.g. service by employee to employer (without contract), sale of land etc. These are in addition to your examples.
The purpose for this column is to examine whether exemption from GST has been availed correctly or not.

8. Table 6 needs to capture information about shipping bill and its date. However, if the shipping bill details are not available, Table 6 will still accept the information. The same can be updated through submission of information in relation to amendment Table 9 in the tax period in which the details are available but before claiming any refund / rebate related to the said invoice. The detail of Shipping Bill shall be furnished in 13 digits capturing port code (six digits) followed by number of shipping bill

Dear Experts,
Please clarify that if there is no minimum threshold limit on Inter state transactions for registration under GST then why there is a provision in Section 5(4) of IGST Act,2017 for liability under reverse charges on the receiver of taxable goods or services or both on inter state transactions if the same is supplied from unregistered dealer, meaning thereby that the supplier is prohibited to make inter state sale of taxable goods or services or both without registration under GST.
Looking forward to your help.

As per one of the conditions, the exporter who received due foreign inward remittances amou
