Case Laws     GST

October 16, 2024

The applicant is required to pay GST on the charges paid to Indian Railways for various services received, as the applicant is the recipient of these services from Indian Railways, and not a pure agent. The applicant has sub-contracted the task of paying these charges to the operator, who is required to pay the applicant along with GST as per their agreement. The charges paid to Indian Railways do not qualify as pure agent services u/r 33 of CGST Rules, 2017, as the applicant has not procured any additional services. Therefore, the applicant is liable to pay GST on the taxable supplies received from Indian Railways at the following rates: Registration Fee @ 18%, Haulage Charges @ 5%, Right to Use (RU) @ 18%, Stabling Charges @ 18%, Station User Fee @ 5%, Cancellation Charges @ 5%. GST will also be charged on the Security Deposit amount if it is adjusted against any of the above charges, at the respective rate applicable to that charge.
