In present Model GST Law there is no clarity on your point number 1 as mentioned above. This way this will lead to double taxation.

As per Model GST Law, there should be pre announced policy regarding discounts.

The terms of discount should have been agreed. Agreement should be there. And also the same should be mentioned on the face of the invoice. If it is satisfied then discount will not form part of sale price. This is my view.

I support the views of both experts. Let us wait for the date of enactment of GST as at present situation about GST is fluid. So many changes are taking place.
