168/24/2021 30-12-2021 Mechanism of refund claim by the taxpayers registered in erstwhile Union Territory of Daman & Diu for period prior to merger with U.T. of Dadra & Nagar Haveli.

New GSTINs with UT Code 26 were created for the taxpayers of erstwhile UT of Daman and Diu w.e.f 1stAugust, 2020 on merger of the UT of Dadra & Nagar Haveli and UT of Daman &Diu. During the transition, the taxpayers have transferred their ITC balance from their electronic credit ledger of the old GSTIN (by reversing the balance amount available in electronic credit ledger through the last return in GSTR 3B filed for the old GSTIN prior to merger) to the new GSTIN (by availing the ITC for the said amount in the first return in GSTR 3B filed for the new GSTIN) as per procedure specified under Notification No. 10/2020-CT dated 21.03.2020

Representations have been received that due to transfer of ITC from old GSTIN to new GSTIN, the taxpayers are unable to apply for refund on account of zero-rated supplies and inverted rated structure for the period prior to merger in respect of old GSTIN as they have no ITC available in the electronic credit ledger of the old GSTIN for debiting the amount from electronic credit ledger for claiming refund of unutilised ITC. Such taxpayers are also unable to apply for such refund claim from the new GSTIN because all the invoices bear the old GSTIN and the system has certain validations which do not allow the refund application to be filed from the new GSTIN for the period prior to the merger

Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017, hereby prescribes the following procedure for such taxpayers

The application for refund shall be filed under ‘Any other’ category on the GST portal using their new GSTIN. In the Remarks column of the application, the applicant needs to enter the category in which the refund application otherwise would have been filed. For example, if the applicant wants to claim refund of unutilised ITC on account of export of goods/services, in remarks column, he shall enter ‘Refund of unutilised ITC on account of export of goods/services without payment of tax for the period prior to merger of Daman & Diu with Dadra & Nagar Haveli’. The application shall be accompanied by all the supporting documents which otherwise are required to be submitted with the refund claim.

At this stage, the applicant is not required to make any debit from the electronic credit ledger.

On receipt of the claim, the proper officer shall calculate the admissible refund amount as per law. Further, upon scrutiny of the application for completeness and eligibility, if the proper officer is satisfied that the whole or any part of the amount claimed is payable as refund, he shall request the applicant, in writing, if required, to debit the said amount from the electronic credit ledger through DRC-03. Once the proof of such debit is received by the proper officer, he shall proceed to issue the refund order in RFD-06 and the payment order in RFD-05

For the categories of refund where debit of ITC is not required, the applicant may apply for refund under the category “Any other” mentioning the reasons in the Remarks column. Such application shall also be accompanied by all the supporting documents which are otherwise required to be submitted along with the refund claim.

No refund claim, requiring debit from the electronic credit ledger or where the refund would result in re-credit of the amount sanctioned in the electronic credit ledger, shall be filed using old GSTIN.

8. Admission to indoor amusement parks having rides etc.
28% rate [entry 34 (iiia)] applies on admission to a place having casino or race club [even if it provides certain other activities] or admission to a sporting event like IPL. On the other hand, Entry 34 (iii), having a rate of 18%, covers all other cases of admission to amusement parks, or theme park etc or any place having joy rides, merry- go rounds, go- carting etc, whether indoor or outdoor, so long as no access is provided to a casino or race club.

9. Services supplied by contract manufacturers to brand owners for manufacture of alcoholic liquor for human consumption
The expression “food and food products” excludes alcoholic beverages for human consumption. As such, in common parlance also alcoholic liquor is not considered as food. Accordingly, services by way of job work in relation to manufacture of alcoholic liquor for human consumption are not eligible for the GST rate of 5% prescribed under the said entry. GST Council recommended that such job work would attract GST at the rate of 18%.

161/17/2021 20-09-2021 Clarification relating to export of services-condition (v) of section 2(6) of the IGST Act 2017 Clarification relating to export of services-condition (v) of section 2(6) of the IGST Act 2017–reg. Condition (v) of section 2(6) Export of service not treated when ” (v) the supplier of service and the recipient of service are establishments of a distinct person in accordance with Explanation 1 in section 8 Example 1. XYZ foreign company having an office or branch in India- There was a doubt regarding the nature of the transaction in case of export of service by the Indian branch of the foreign company to its head office in another country. The circular has stated that this transaction can also be classified as an export of service. 2. ABC Indian company having a branch or office outside India- ABC – there was the same doubt prevailing about the transaction type of an Indian company that provided its services to its own branch or office outside India. But the circular states that this transaction also falls under the category of export of services. Hence, the circular sheds light on the points that – supply of services by a subsidiary/ sister concern/ group concern, etc. of a foreign company, which is incorporated in India under the Companies Act, 2013 (and thus qualifies as a ‘company’ in India as per Companies Act), to the establishments of the said foreign company located outside India (incorporated outside India), would not be barred by the condition (v) of the sub-section (6) of the section 2 of the IGST Act 2017 for being considered as export of services, as it would not be treated as supply between merely establishments of distinct persons under Explanation 1 of section 8 of IGST Act 2017 . Similarly, the supply from a company incorporated in India to its related establishments outside India, which are incorporated under the laws outside India, would not be treated as supply to merely establishments of distinct persons under Explanation 1 of section 8 of IGST Act 2017. Such supplies, therefore, would qualify as ‘export of services’, subject to fulfilment of other conditions as provided under sub-section (6) of section 2 of IGST Act. Pdf Icon

services or location of the recipient of intermediary services is outside India.

refund of the integrated tax paid on the same through FORM GST RFD-01A. This was

tax/cess declared in table 3.1(b) of FORM GSTR-3B. The said Circular clarified that for the
tax periods from 01.07.2017 to 30.06.2019, such registered persons shall be allowed to file the
