..... x on the scrap sold by him. Therefore he will issue a credit note only to the value of scrap sold by him. Therefore, in my opinion, no tax liability will arise on such credit note. - Reply By CS SANJAY MALHOTRA - The Reply = Credit note is issued in terms of section 34 of CGST act in reference to invoice issued on account of supply. Credit note may be on account of sales return, discount, etc. If job workers issues credit note, same will be against what ??? Against his job charges, not possible in present scenario. Job worker has retained money from scrap sales, if he has been authorised to make scrap sale. No need of credit note as the basic amount excluding GST can be set off against job charges receivables due. The same is .....

..... e from job worker to scrap dealer, credit note issued by job worker to principle for scrap material value will attract Gst Regards K.Srinivasan - Reply By CS SANJAY MALHOTRA - The Reply = You have to raise invoice for supply of material with GST which job worker will accept in his return. If job worker raises credit note with GST, the same will reduce his tax liability in return. Then he has to raise the same against his conversion charges invoice only. Your acceptance further to credit note of job worker indicates that you have debited the duty in your return. Now call depends on you as in both above scenario, duty liability on material part indirectly will come on you finally. - Reply By K.Srinivasan Kuppuswamy - The Reply = .....

..... tion of job-work? Thank you all for the valuable insights - Reply By Ramaswamy S - The Reply = It does not violate any provisions of the law. For the sake of clarity - If the goods are supplied by the recipient to the supplier for manufacturing/ providing service, the same shall be included in the value of goods/ services as additional consideration. However in this case, the goods supplied is not for providing the service but it is the residue/ remnants. If the scrap is not returned, then the recipient of the service shall debit the amount to the extent of the scrap +GST (due to the shortage in the quantity) which shall be available as credit at your end. The same cannot be termed as Additional Consideration. Therefore, the price ca .....

..... n be negotiated within the frame work. Regards S.Ramaswamy - Reply By Nikhil Oltikar - The Reply = Thank you very much for your reply Mr. Ramaswamy. From your reply, I understand as follows:- If the waste/scrap of job-work is retained by the job-worker and the job-worker retains the proceeds of sale of this waste/scrap(upon payment of GST), the labour charges for the job-work can be so negotiated. Because the job-worker is retaining the scrap sale proceeds(upon payment of GST), there is no need to add the value of the scrap to the job-working charges in the invoice of the job-work to the principal. Since GST is paid on the sale of waste/scrap and on job-working charges, the job-working charges so mentioned on the invoice are n .....
