If any two of the above events occur before the change of rate, the time of supply

is before the change of rate. If any two of them occur after the change of rate,

the time of supply is after the change of rate and the new rate becomes

applicable to the supply. Using this principle, time of supply, in case of change

in rate of tax, can be determined as under:

PRACTICAL QUESTIONS CONCEPT I

Aggregate Turnover – Section 2(6) :- defines “aggregate turnover” as the aggregate value of all taxable supplies (excluding the value of inward supplies on which tax is payable by a person on reverse charge basis), exempt supplies, exports of goods or services or both and inter-State supplies of persons having the same Permanent Account Number, to be computed on all India basis but excludes central tax, State tax, Union territory tax, integrated tax and cess

Turnover in a state – Section 2(112) :- “turnover in State” or “turnover in Union territory” means the aggregate value of all taxable supplies (excluding the value of inward supplies on which tax is payable by a person on reverse charge basis) and exempt supplies made within a State or Union territory by a taxable person, exports of goods or services or both and inter-State supplies of goods or services or both made from the State or Union territory by the said taxable person but excludes central tax, State tax, Union territory tax, integrated tax and cess;

Que. 1 A Kiryana merchant whose aggregate turnover in 2017-18 was Rs. 85 lakh. For April 2018 having following supplies:-

Value of exempt supply of goods 7,00,000

Value of taxable supply of goods 3,00,000

Interstate purchase of goods 9,00,000

Import of goods from outside India 6,00,000

Calculate GST assuming CGST- 9%, SGST – 9% applicable on his goods. He wants to opt for composition scheme u/s 10.

Answer: In case of trader – CGST – 0.5% of Taxable Turnover in State/Union Territory SGST – 0.5% of Taxable Turnover in State/Union Territory. Taxable Turnover in state = Rs.3 lakh CGST = 0.5% of Rs. 3 lakh = 1,500 SGST = 0.5% of Rs.3 lakh = 1,500

Note:- 1. A composition scheme dealer cannot make interstate outward supply. But inter-

state inward supply can be made.2. Import is also interstate inward supply which can be made by trader.

Que. 8 Rishabh Enterprises – a sole proprietorship firm – started an air-conditioned restaurant in Virar, Maharashtra in the month of February wherein the customers are served cooked food as well as cold drinks/non-alcoholic beverages. In March, the firm opened a liquor shop in Raipur, Uttarakhand for trading of alcoholic liquor for human consumption. Determine whether Rishabh Enterprises is liable to be registered under GST law with the help of the following information:

Particulars February March

(Rs.)* (Rs.)*

Serving of cooked food and cold drinks/non-alcoholic beverages in restaurant in Maharashtra

5,50,000 6,50,000

Sale of alcoholic liquor for human consumption in Uttarakhand 5,00,000

Interest received from banks on the fixed deposits 1,00,000 1,00,000

Supply of packed food items from restaurant in Maharashtra 1,50,000 2,00,000

*excluding GST

You are required to provide reasons for treatment of various items given above.

Answer: As per section 22 of the CGST Act, 2017, a supplier is liable to be registered in the State/Union territory from where he makes a taxable supply of goods or services or both, if his aggregate turnover in a financial year exceeds Rs. 20 lakh. However, if such taxable supplies are made from any of the specified special category States, namely, States of Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand, he shall be liable to be registered if his aggregate turnover in financial year exceeds Rs. 10 lakh. In the given question, since Rishabh Enterprises is engaged in making taxable supplies from Maharashtra which is not a specified Special Category State, the threshold limit for obtaining registration is Rs. 20 lakh. The threshold limit is not reduced to Rs. 10 lakh in this case, as sale of alcoholic liquor for human consumption from Uttarakhand (one of the specified Special Category States) are non-taxable supplies in terms of section 9(1) of CGST Act, 2017. As per Section 2(6) of the CGST Act, 2017, aggregate turnover includes the aggregate value of:

(i) All taxable supplies, (ii) All exempt supplies, (iii) Exports of goods and/or services and (iv) All inter-state supplies of persons having the same PAN.

The above is computed on all India basis. Further, the aggregate turnover excludes central tax, State tax, Union territory tax, integrated tax and cess. Moreover, the value of inward supplies on which tax is payable under reverse charge is not taken into account for calculation of ‘aggregate turnover’.

In the light of the aforementioned provisions, the aggregate turnover of Rishabh Enterprises is computed as under:

Computation of aggregate turnover of Rishabh Enterprises

Particulars Turnover of February

Cumulative turnover of February & March

(Rs.) (Rs.)

Serving of cooked food and cold drinks/non-alcoholic beverages in restaurant in Maharashtra

5,50,000 12,00,000 [Rs. 5,50,000 + Rs. 6,50,000]

Add: Interest received from banks on the fixed 1,00,000 2,00,000

Add: Supply of packed food items from restaurant in Maharashtra

1,50,000 3,50,000 [Rs. 1,50,000 + Rs. 2,00,000]

Aggregate Turnover 8,00,000 22,50,000

Notes: 1. As per section 2(47) of the CGST Act, 2017, exempt supply includes non-taxable

supply. Thus, supply of alcoholic liquor for human consumption in Uttarakhand,being a non-taxable supply, is an exempt supply and is, therefore, includible whilecomputing the aggregate turnover.

2. Services by way of extending deposits, loans or advances in so far as theconsideration is represented by way of interest or discount (other than interestinvolved in credit card services) is exempt vide Notification No. 12/2017 CT (R) dated28.06.2017. Thus, interest received from banks on the fixed deposits is an exemptsupply and is, therefore, includible while computing the aggregate turnover.

Rishabh Enterprises was not liable to be registered in the month of February since its aggregate turnover did not exceed Rs. 20 lakh in that month. However, since its aggregate turnover exceeds Rs. 20 lakh in the month of March, it should apply for registration within 30 days from the date on which it becomes liable to registration.

S Ltd. exported some goods to Truimph Inc. of USA. It received US $ 9,000 as

consideration for the same and sold it @ Rs. 44 per US dollar. Compute the value of

supply of service under rule 32(2) of CGST Rules.

(a) RBI reference rate for US dollar at that time is Rs. 45 per US dollar.

(b) RBI reference rate for US dollars is not available.

What would be the value of taxable service if US $ 9,000 are converted into UK £ 4,500.

RBI reference rate at that time for US $ is Rs. 46 per US dollar and for UK £ is Rs. 88 per UK

Pound.

Answer:

(i) Value of service would be as follows:-

(RBI reference rate for $ - Selling rate for $) x Total units of US $

= Rs (45 – 44) x 9,000 = Rs. 9,000

(b) 1% of Rs. (44 x 9,000) = Rs. 3,960

(ii) Value of service would be 1% of the lower of the following:-

(a) US dollar converted into Indian rupees = $ 9,000 x Rs. 46 = Rs. 4,14,000

(b) UK pound converted into Indian rupees = £ 4,500 x Rs. 88 = Rs. 3,96,000

Value of service = 1% of Rs. 3,96,000 = Rs. 3,960
