Foreign Affiliate Seconded Employee Services: Rule 28 Sets Invoice Value as Market Value for GST Assessment

February 7, 2025

Case Laws     GST     HC

HC determined that under Rule 28's second Proviso, the value declared in invoices for services from seconded employees represents their open market value. When foreign affiliates provide services without raising invoices, per Circular No. 210/4/2024-GST, such services are deemed to have 'nil' value, which becomes the market value under CGST Rules. This interpretation applies specifically to GST levy on expenses for seconded employees from foreign entities. The court emphasized that the declared invoice value, or absence thereof resulting in nil value, establishes the definitive market value for GST purposes. Petition was allowed, confirming this interpretation of Rule 28 and its application to seconded employee arrangements.
