Another gst question:
Iam enrolled Graduated based registered in gst practitioner in gst.gov.in portal.every gst practitioner registered person GSTP exmaination passed compulsory or not.
in section 10(2) (b) it is clearly mentioned that a dealer opt composition scheme only when he doesn’t deal in exempted supplies, so how can a dealer who is in composition scheme will pay tax ONLY ON TAXABLE SUPPLIES. explain!!
Hi Devendra,
Sec.10 has nowhere said that a dealer opting composition scheme shouldn’t deal with exempted supplies.
What Sec.10 speaks is clearly reproduced below for your reference:
The registered person shall be eligible to opt under sub-section (1), if:
a) He is not engaged in the supply of services other than supplies referred to in
Clause (b) of paragraph 6 of Schedule II;
b) He is not engaged in making any supply of goods which are not leviable to tax
Under this Act; (Means goods which are excluded from the scope of taxation under GST Ex: Alcoholic Liquor for Human Consumption)
c) He is not engaged in making any inter-State outward supplies of goods;
d) He is not engaged in making any supply of goods through an electronic
Commerce operator who is required to collect tax at source under section 52; and
e) He is not a manufacturer of such goods as may be notified by the Government
On the recommendations of the Council.
For further clarity on this query, I will give you an example which will help you in solving your query:
A Hotel, which is registered under GST as Composite dealer supplies Fruits and Vegetables in addition to Food Items
Then, Hotel is liable to pay GST on supplies of Food Items only (@5%) and the hotel is not liable to pay GST on Fruits and Vegetables supplied by them.
As Fruits and Vegetables are Nil rated which is an Exempted Supply (Sec. 2(47) Exempted Supply means supply of any goods or services or both which attracts nil rate of tax or which may be wholly exempt from tax under section 11, or under section 6 of the Integrated Goods and Services Tax Act, and includes non-taxable supply).
I agree with first part of you reply but disagee of 2 nd part i.e. example given, because when we read section 10(1) of CGST act with Rule 7 of CGST rules we may conclude that trader will pay tax on TURNOVER OF TAXABLE SUPPLIES whereas manufacturer and restaurant owner will pay tax on TURNOVER means including exempted supplies
Any gst Composite scheme dealer gstr-4 return not enabled f.y.2019-2020 in gst portal.
Composite dealer Gstr-4 return f.y.2019-2020 filed compulsory or not.
Hi Sir,
GSTR-4 is only a Theoretical Return but in practice such return was not practically enabled.
But a return named GSTR-9A is been introduced which is a Annul return for Composite dealers which is to be filed by 31st December following the close of the Financial Year.
For your reference, i am herewith attaching the Forms which were notified by GST Council where the Form GSTR-4 is no where prescribed. (http://gstcouncil.gov.in/sites/default/files/Rules-dynamic/05.05.2020%20_CGST%20Rules%2C%202017_%28Part-B_Forms%29.pdf)
