Dated:- 12-3-2018<\/p>\n
An Input service distributor (ISD) is an office of supplier of goods or services which receives tax invoices for services and distributes the credit in such invoices to its branches having the same PAN in the manner prescribed under the law. However, in order to distribute credit, following conditions are required to be followed:
\n * The credit can be distributed to the recipients of credit against a document containing the details as may be prescribed.
\n * The amount of credit distributed shall not exceed the amount of credit available for distribution.
\n * The input tax credit available for distribution in a month shall be distributed in the same month. E.G. Input Tax Credit for the month of July shall be distributed in the same month i.e. in the month of July only.
\nProcedure for distribution of credit:
\nThe procedure for distribution of credit is given in Sec<\/p>\n

\n * relevant period – means –
\n * If the recipients of credit have turnover in their states during the FY preceding to the current FY, the Preceding FY; or
\n * If some or all recipients do not have any turnover in their States in the FY preceding the year during which the credit is to be distributed, relevant period will be the last quarter for which details of such turnover of all the recipients are available, previous to the month during which credit is to be distributed.
\nTherefore, if all the recipients have turnover in the previous year, then turnover for the previous year shall be considered for purpose of calculating the ratio.
\nHowever, in a situation, if all the recipient were not having turnover in the previous year, then turnover of the last quarter (in which all recipients having turnover) preceding the month of return shall be considered for computing the ratio E.g<\/p>\n

\nServices taken under RCM
\nThe ISD is not permitted to make payment of tax under RCM. Therefore, in a situation where the ISD is taking services which are taxable under RCM, it is suggested that either take a normal registration and take services in such registration and pass on the credit to ISD by raising an invoice on ISD. The other option is that the company can take such services in other existing normal registration and pass it on to ISD. Thereafter, the ISD can distribute the credits to the concerned units.
\nGST Retuns:
\n * An ISD is required to file monthly return in GSTR-6 within 13 days after the end of the month and will have to furnish information of all ISD invoices issued. The monthly return can be prepared after adding, correcting or deleting the details on the bas<\/p>\n

\nOn the basis of above, it would have been observed that compliances under ISD requires great efforts like maintaining credits, mismatching of credits, distributing credit, issuing Input Services Distributor Invoices, etc. Moreover, the determination of ratios for distribution is also a cumbersome process. Though it's a legacy brought forward from erstwhile law but no attempt has been made to simplify the process. Even after going through the provisions, the f<\/p>\n

\nDear Sir,
\nWe are GST registered Pvt Ltd co in Karnataka, have marketing offices in Chennai, Mumbai, Kolkata, Pune & Delhi. The rent is being paid by the company to un-registered landlords. Should we discharge RCM for such rent paid by the company ? if so, whether the GST paid under RCM can be taken credit in Karnataka ?

\npresently there is no tax under reverse charge on inward supply of goods or services from an unregistered dealer. hence you are not liable to pay gst as a recipient accordingly no question of distribution of tax paid.
