\nNOT required to pay GST on cost of tickets. Cost of ticket cannot be part of transaction value because it does not go into your pocket. You pay and then get reimbursement. GST already paid. No double taxation.

\nYes. Sir. I agree with you to the extent of concept of pure agent. C.A. works as pure agent also.

\nWith humility I slightly differ from Sri Ruia's view.
\nAs per Rule 33 of the CGST Rules,2017 .Value of supply of services in case of pure agent.-Notwithstanding anything contained in the provisions of this Chapter, the expenditure or costs incurred by a supplier as a pure agent of the recipient of supply shall be excluded from the value of supply, if all the following conditions are satisfied, namely,-
\n(i) the supplier acts as a pure agent of the recipient of the supply, when he makes the payment to the third party on auth<\/p>\n

\nIllustration.- Corporate services firm A is engaged to handle the legal work pertaining to the incorporation of Company B. Other than its service fees, A also recovers from B, registration fee and approval fee for the name of the company paid to the Registrar of Companies. The fees charged by the Registrar of Companies for the registration and approval of the name are compulsorily levied on B. A is merely acting as a pure agent in the payment of those fees. Therefore, A's recovery of such expenses is a disbursement and not part of the value of supply made by A to B.
\nIn the instant case, the expenses towards the travel are n the interest of the client. It is not a pure agent concept. Be that the case, every body will not include many expenses like Hotel bills, Restaurant bills and other expenses incurred by the CA during the provison of the service.
