I will be grateful if you could advise us on ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... the following with respect to GST implications: We publish the magazines in Maharashtra and the Advertisers are from all over the world. We send the copy of the magazine along with the invoice to the Advertisers. As per place of supply of services, the service provided to a registered person shall be the location of such person. Here I presume registered person means the recipient registered in the state from where the service is provided. And supply of service made to any other person other than registered person shall be The location of the recipient where the address on record exist and The location of the supplier of services in other cases. Question 1. If the advertiser is located in other state and not registered in Maharashtra which tax will be applicable (a) IGST or (b) SGST CGST 2. We organise exhibitions in different states. Currently we have centralised registration of Services tax having principle place of business in Mumbai. Question 1.

X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... b) SGST CGST. 2.If we organise an Exhibition in other state where we have branch office. Do we need to take registration in that state? 3. If we organise an Exhibition in other state where we do not have branch office Do we need to take registration as Casual Taxable Person or regular registration? In case of Casual Taxable person, the estimated liability is required to be paid in advance and the registration is valid for 90 days only, which can be extended with the approval.Normally an Exhibition is planned more than a year in advance and its very difficult to ascertain the liability in such advance period, moreover we start receiving the small advances more than a year in advance. How do we proceed in such case? I would appreciate your valuable advise on the above.
