Case Law Details
In re B.T. Patil & Sons Belgaum Construction Private Limited (GST AAR Maharashtra)
The present application has been filed under section 97 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 and the Maharashtra Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 [hereinafter referred to as “the CGST Act and MGST Act” respectively] by M/s. B.T. PATIL & SONS BELGAUM CONSTRUCTION PRIVATE LIMITED, the applicant, seeking an advance ruling in respect of the following questions:
A) If the tax rate of M/s. Mahalaxmi B T Patil Honai Constructions JV (Referred to as JV) is NIL as per SI No 3A- Chapter No. 9954 as per Notification No. 12/2017 C.T. (Rate) dated 28.06.2017, as amended by Notification No. 2/2018-C.T. (Rate) dated 25.01.2018, whether we can avail the benefit of the same tax rate i.e. NIL?
B) If the above answer is negative, then whether we can avail the benefit of SI No 3 (x) — Chapter No. 9954 as per Notification No. 01/2018-C.T. (Rate) dated 25.01.2018 (amendments in the Notification No 11/2017- Central Tax (Rate) dated 18th June 2017)?
At the outset, we would like to make it clear that the provisions of both the CGST Act and the MGST Act are the same except for certain provisions. Therefore, unless a mention is specifically made to any dissimilar provisions, a reference to the CGST Act would also mean a reference to the same provision under the MGST Act. Further to the earlier, henceforth for the purposes of this Advance Ruling, the expression ‘GST Act’ would mean CGST Act and MGST Act.
