RECENT

1.  Indirect tax board had removed a “controversial” circular that imposed GST on post-sale discounts by dealers, but it has done little to clear the confusion around the many issues that arose with the circular. 

2.  In June, the CBIC had issued a circular which said that dealers will have to pay 18% GST on the post-sale discount that they get from the suppliers of goods, if the supplier asks them to pass on the concessions to the end consumer. 

3.  The circular came out with different situations where GST should be paid and where it should not. For instance, imagine that a company sells a car to a dealer for Rs 10 lakh and later gives a discount of Rs 50,000. In doing so, the firm did not put any obligation on the dealer to pass on the benefit. So, the dealer need not pay any GST on Rs 50,000. However, if the company asks the dealer to pass on the benefit to the customer, then the dealer has to pay GST on the entire amount, including Rs 50,000. 

4.  The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) had said This had irked industry, particularly the auto sector, which has already been reeling under the pressure of subdued demand. this circular violated the cardinal principle of GST that the tax cost is to be borne by the ultimate consumer.

5.  This principle means that the supply of goods or service should suffer the tax only to the extent of consideration paid by the ultimate consumer,” the CII had said, demanding that this provision in the circular be changed. It said additional discounts are generally given to liquidate the old inventories or push products under weak market conditions.
