In my view margin scheme under Rule 32(5) will be appliable. Since the second sale is less than the first sales, no GST will be attracted.

Views of experts are solicited.

If the Assets is repossessed from the defaulting borrower, then purchase price (of second hand purchaser -- herein Bank) in such case will be calculated as Original Purchase price less Five percentage points for every quarter or part thereof.

Proviso to Rule 32(5) is applicable for defaulting borrower who is unregistered. Hence, for URP borrower, Purchase Price will be equal to Purchase Price reduced by five percentage points for every quarter or part thereof, between the date of purchase and the date of disposal by the person making such repossession. In case of Registered borrower, whole consideration shall be taxable
