2020 (4) TMI 693 - AAR - GST


Issues involved:
1. Requirement of separate registration in Karnataka state for executing a contract.
2. Charging of CGST & SGST or IGST based on the location of the dealer and recipient.
3. Documentation required for transporting goods from Rajasthan and Karnataka to Karnataka Cement Project.

Analysis:

Issue 1: Requirement of separate registration in Karnataka state for executing a contract
The applicant, a registered works contractor in Rajasthan, sought an advance ruling on whether separate registration is needed in Karnataka for a project awarded by M/s. Shree Cement Ltd. The Authority ruled that as the applicant's principal place of business is in Rajasthan and they do not have any fixed establishment in Karnataka, no separate registration in Karnataka is required for executing the contract.

Issue 2: Charging of CGST & SGST or IGST based on the location of the dealer and recipient
a) If goods are purchased from a dealer in Rajasthan and shipped to Karnataka, both the dealer and recipient are in Rajasthan, making it an intra-state supply. The dealer must charge CGST & SGST, while the applicant must charge IGST in the invoice addressed to the project site in Karnataka.
b) If goods are purchased from a dealer in Karnataka and shipped to Karnataka, it becomes an inter-state supply. In this case, the dealer in Karnataka must charge IGST, and the applicant must also charge IGST in the invoice addressed to the project site in Karnataka.

Issue 3: Documentation required for transporting goods to Karnataka Cement Project
The question regarding the documents required for transporting goods from Rajasthan and Karnataka to the project site was deemed not covered under the issues for which an advance ruling can be sought under the CGST Act 2017. Therefore, no ruling was provided on this question.

In conclusion, the ruling stated that the applicant does not need a separate registration in Karnataka for the project. It clarified the tax implications based on the location of the dealer and recipient for intra-state and inter-state supplies. Additionally, it highlighted the limitation on seeking a ruling for certain documentation requirements for transporting goods.
