It is works contract service.

[KASTURI SETHI]

New GST rate will be applicable on works contract services from the date of implementation of GST.

[MUKUND THAKKAR]

if contract before GST kindly review the same, and make necessary changes in contract terns as per GST.

[Himansu Sha]

For wcs, it should be immovable property. Otherwise it is a normal service.

[MUKUND THAKKAR]

What about contracts that are awarded pre-gst? The tender rates didnt imply gst in it. How is it the government wants to collect more tax when the tender was called pre-gst? And the quote didnt imply any gst implication

[JAYACHANDRA KEERTHI]

Distination based tax will be charged or tax will be received where we recevied from order ? (i.e tax will be charged for Billed party or Ship't party)

Previously Civil work contract services provided to Government Agency/Authority were exempted from serve tax. Now under GST is there such exemption?

also whether sych Government Agecy/Authority also have to pay GST as they are availing services?

please advise.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Pl. refer to your query dated 15.7.17.

Service provided to Govt. is not exempted from GST and Service provided by Govt. is exempted. For your information all services provided by Govt. are not exempted. In some services, liability has been shifted to Service Receiver. Each and every service has to be examined critically.

Please guide me, i want to know about before gst sales tax 5.25% on contractor work and after Gst tax rate apply on contractor works.

@ Kasturi Sethi Sir, thanks for the information.

if we are doing any expenses like conveyance,printing & stationery, repairs & maintenance, labour charges etc.& if such expenses are Rs.5000/-a day, we have to pay GST on the same under RCM.

So my query is if such Govt.Agency has given a contract to a registered civil work contractor, for construction of their building, do they have to pay GST ?

Rate on works contract is reduced to 12%
