Ex - Works Supply and Movement of Goods, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[Kaustubh Karandikar]

XYZ registered in Maharashtra supplying goods to PQR who is buyer and registered in Maharashtra. XYZ issuing invoice on ex – works basis and handing over goods at factory gate to PQR. In this situation, whether it will be treated as movement of goods is taking place and therefore it will attract provisions of Section 10(1)(a) or it will be treated as does not involve movement of goods and therefore it will attract provisions of Section 10(1)(c) of IGST Act?

Sir,

Please clarify whether PQR is going to keep the goods at the factory gate of XYZ?. In my opinion though XYZ hands over the goods to PQR at the factory gate PQR is not going to keep the goods at the factory gate of XYZ. He will certainly move the goods to his location. In this case the transport may be arranged by PQR on his account. Therefore Section 10 (1) (a) of IGST Act is applicable.

Section 10(1)(a) of IGST Act is applicable.

Earlier there was confusion on EX Work Supplies but now this matter is settle and IGST will be charged on such transactions.
