Tax Charged by Supplier ( Security Services), Goods and Services Tax - GST

[RAMNIRANJAN KANDOI]

Dear Sir,

Security Service provider (Sole Proprietor) is registered under GST and has raised invoice by charging 18% GST. Service provided to a Pvt Ltd Company.

The recipient of the service, paid the total amt including the GST amt to the service provider (Security Service provider)

During audit, objection is raised that recipient of service should have paid RCM and claimed ITC. What is the way out? Is there any favourable case law available?

See TMI ID 759672.

It is a settled principle that once tax is paid by one person then again taxing the same transaction in the hands of another person should not be done.

Take declaration/CA certificate from security agency that it has paid the applicable taxes.
