GST on purchases from unregistered purchases

GST on purchases from unregistered purchases
By: – Naimish Padhiar
Goods and Services Tax – GST
Dated:- 2-8-2017

Reverse Charge Mechanism under GST and implications of exemption upto ₹ 5000 per day
Let's look at the critical provisions of the GST law which have enabled reverse charge mechanism :-
Compulsory Reverse Charge even if the supplier is registered –
Sec 9(3) The Government may, on the recommendations of the Council, by notification, specify categories of supply of goods or services or both, the tax on which shall be paid on reverse charge basis by the recipient of such goods or services or both and all the provisions of this Act shall apply to such recipient as if he is the person liable for paying the tax in relation to the supply of such goods or services or both.
The above section primarily covers services availed from Goods Transport Agency, Lawyer, government, corporate sponsorship, director etc.
Reverse Charge if the supplier is unregistered –

eceived by a registered person from any or all the suppliers, who is or are not registered, exceeds five thousand rupees in a day.
To sum up, the supply should be intra state supply (within the state) and can be for goods as well as services or both. Moreover the supply should be received by the registered person from an unregistered dealer only and upto a daily limit of ₹ 5000/-
Example:-
Mr. X purchased following items from unregistered dealer, all are dated 01.07.2017 as under:
1st bill – From Ram: Stationery = 2000/-
2nd bill – From Shyam: Lunch = 1000/-
3rd bill – From Madhu : Books = 3000/-
In this case, The bills of Mr. X will not get covered under this notification as aggregate value of all supplies exceeds 5000/- on a single date (01.07.2017)
Exemption would have been available if,:
1) Bill dates are different (So that it will come under 5000/- day limit, say bill date of Ram is 02.07.2017)
2) Any of the bills are 1000/- less than the mentioned value(Say Bill

charge is payable u/s 9(3) without any exemption threshold.
Whether this daily limit benefits would be available if the goods/services received from persons covered under 9(4) are blocked credits?
The benefit of daily limit would be available. Output Tax under reverse charge would be payable if it crosses the daily limit even though they are covered under blocked credits.
What if the limit crosses 5000 in a day, is GST payable over and above the value or from rupee 1?
If the value of taxable supplies exceeds ₹ 5000 per day for all suppliers, then GST would be payable on the Total value of the supplies received from unregistered persons.
Is this limit applicable to all supplies?
The limit is applicable to only taxable supply of goods or services or both. Exempt supplies are out of the perview of this notification.
Mr. X purchased following items from unregistered dealer, all are dated 01.07.2017 as under:
1st bill – From Ram: Stationery = 2000/-
2nd bill – From Shyam: Ho

ot applicable on such supplies.
Can credit be availed for these taxes paid and on what basis, any invoice issue requirement?
Credits can be availed on payment of GST in cash. A consolidated monthly tax invoice can be raised if supplies are received from a single vendor. The Invoice shall be raised on the date of receipt of goods or services or both. Also a payment voucher needs to be issued on the date of making any advance payment as the time of supply is invoice of payment whichever is earlier.

GST: CHALLENGES AHEAD

GST: CHALLENGES AHEAD
By: – Dr. Sanjiv Agarwal
Goods and Services Tax – GST
Dated:- 2-8-2017

GST is now one month old and Government as well as other stakeholders face a testing and challenging timings ahead. While implementation issues will be there which are bound to be, and will also be sorted out at last, the Government including the all powered GST Council, Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) and the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) ought to address the following issues, sooner the better:
* Scope of turnover in laws / enactments, viz, Companies Act, Income Tax Act and GST legislations.
* While up till now turnover comprised of sales turnover, GST now talk abo

t.
* Moreover, treatment of excise duty as a tax on production or manufacture of goods will be no longer be there and it would no longer be a tax on sale or supply. This would make the figures non-comparable and result in reduction of top line of companies dealing in goods.
The questions thus emerge for providing a solution are:
* Will the ICAI / MCA make necessary amends in the Standards / Companies Act to recognize 'supply' as revenue.
* How will companies account for and disclose supplies in books of accounts and financial statements? Will 'supplies' be considered as sales?
* How 'supplies not being sale' will be disclosed in financial statements
* Returns under Income Tax will be based on 'sales&#3

ng standard on revenue recognition should be suitably amended to capture supply and to bring out clearly distinction between 'sale' and 'supply'
* Schedule III of the Companies Act, 2013 be amended to prescribe appropriate disclosure of 'supply which is not a sale', such supplies being an off balance sheet item
* Converge the definitions of turnover in all enactments
* GST may be levied only on 'sales' and not 'supplies'.
The law of GST is already too complex to comprehend for all stakeholders including professionals and if this is not sorted out, it will create further complications for all including investors and breed litigation arising out of different interpretation by different tax collec
