Can a notification override Act ? Because act allows input in case of further supply. We believe that for all the trading transactions input should be allowed. - Reply By Mahir S - The Reply = As per Notification No. 46/2017 - Central Tax (Rate) , standalone restaurants will charge only 5 % GST, but cannot enjoy any ITC on the inputs. It may also be noted that benefits were already provided n the past, by way of slashing the GST rates on restaurant bills from 18 % to 5 % and the reason for same was that the restaurant sector were not forwarding the benefits of the input tax credit received, to its customers. - Reply By Prasanna Kumar - The Reply = Dear queri .....
