5. FINDINGS, ANALYSIS & CONCLUSION:
I. We observe that, the applicant has entered in to an agreement dated 03.11.2018 with NAFED for procurement of agricultural produce i.e. oilseeds and pulses for NAFED under the government schemes of MSP and PSS respectively. That as per said agreement, the procured material has to be delivered in gunny bags to NAFED. The applicant in this regard has entered in to a separate agreement dated 12.09.2018 with NAFED for procuring gunny bags after calling tenders from respective sellers in the open market. The applicant receives commission @2% from NAFED for procurement of agricultural produce and if this procurement is being done through Kray Vikray Sahkari Samiti, then, out of the above 2% commission, 1% is given to Kray Vikray Sahkari Samiti by the applicant.
II. The activity of the applicant is either a supply of goods or a service of commission agent. The relevant provisions under GST law in respect of principal-Agent relationship are reproduced below:-
-
- The GST law has provided the definition of the term “principal” as “a person on whose behalf an agent carries on the business of supply or receipt of goods or services or both”.
- As per section 2(5) of the CGST Act, 2017, ‘agent’ means a person, including a factor, broker, commission agent, arhatia, del-credere agent, an auctioneer or any other mercantile agent, by whatever name called, who carries on the business of supply or receipt of goods or services or both on behalf of

- Based on the legal definitions, the traits of an agent, in layman terms, can be determined as mentioned below:
An agent is a person engaged in the supply or receipt of goods and/or services on behalf of other (the other person is referred to as the `principan.The agent carries on the business of supply and/or receipt of goods and/or services on behalf of the principal.
-
- The applicant is providing service of a commission agent for procurement of agricultural produce. The activity of commissioning agent is though taxable but if such services are provided in relation to agricultural produce, then the same is exempted by way of Notification No. 12/2017 Central Tax (rate) dated 28.06.2017 (as amended from time to time). The relevant portion of the said Notification is reproduced as below:
| Sl. No. | Chapter, Section or Heading | Description of Service | Rate (per cent.) | Condition |
| (1) | (2) | (3) | (4) | (5) |
| 54 | 9986 | Services relating to cultivation of plants and rearing of all life forms of animals, except the rearing of horses, for food, fibre, fuel, raw material or other similar products or agricultural produce by way of— (a) agricultural operations directly related to production of any agricultural produce including cultivation, harvesting, threshing, plant protection or testing; (b) supply of farm labour; (c) processes carried out at an agricultural farm including tending, pruning, cutting, harvesting, drying, cleaning, trimming, sun drying, fumigating, curing, sorting, grading, cooling or bulk packaging and such like operations which do not alter the essential characteristics of agricultural produce but make it only marketable for the primary market; (d) renting or leasing of agro machinery or vacant land with or without a structure incidental to its use; (e) loading, unloading, packing, storage or warehousing of agricultural produce; (f) agricultural extension services; (g) services by any Agricultural Produce Marketing Committee or Board or services provided by a commission agent for sale or purchase of agricultural produce; [(h) services by way of fumigation in a warehouse of agricultural produce.]28 |
Nil | Nil |
In view of the above facts, we observe that the activity of applicant as a commission agent providing services to the principal (NAFED) is exempted under Serial No. 54 of the Notification No. 12/2017 Central Tax (rate) dated 28.06.2017 under chapter/ section heading 9986.
III. We have examined the copy of invoices submitted by the applicant and observe that:-
a. The applicant is issuing invoice for supply of goods (agricultural produce) to a purchaser/buyer (as directed by NAFED) and is charging GST on such goods.
b. Kray Vikray Sahakari Samiti is raising invoice in favour of the applicant for commission charges @ 1% of the value of supply.
c. The applicant is raising invoice to NAFED for commissioning charges of itself as well as Kray Vikray Sahakari Samiti @ 1% each on the value of supply.
As the applicant as a supplier of goods is raising invoice in his name for further supply thus holding of title of goods is being transferred from NAFED to the applicant.
IV. Now in examining whether the activity undertaken is a supply of goods or not, the section 7 of CGST/RGST Act, 2017 which defines supply is reproduced below:
7. (1) For the purposes of this Act, the expression “supply” includes
(a) all forms of supply of goods or services or both such as sale, transfer, barter, exchange, licence, rental, lease or disposal made or agreed to be made for a consideration by a person in the course or furtherance of business;
(b) import of services for a consideration whether or not in the course or furtherance of business;
(c) the activities specified in Schedule I, made or agreed to be made without a consideration; and
(d) the activities to be treated as supply of goods or supply of services as referred to in Schedule II.
The activity undertaken by the applicant though involves transfer of title of holding of goods but is not for consideration therefore does not fall under sub-section (a) of Section 7 of CGST/RGST Act, 2017. However, while going through the Schedule-I of the CGST/RGST Act, 2017, the relevant portion of which is reproduced as under:-
3. Supply of goods
(a) by a principal to his agent where the agent undertakes to supply such goods on behalf of the principal; or
(b) by an agent to his principal where the agent undertakes to receive such goods on behalf of the
We observe that, the activity of further supply of goods (agricultural produce) on direction of NAFED by the applicant is a supply of goods under the Schedule-I of CGST/RGST Act, 2017.
V. Reference may also be taken of Circular No.57/31/2018-GST dated 04thof September, 2018, issued by CBIC regarding clarifications on “Scope of Principal-agent relationship in the context of Schedule I of the CGST Act”. The relevant portion applicable to instant case is summarized as under:-
-
- In terms of Schedule I of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (hereinafter referred to as the “CGST Act”), the supply of goods by an agent on behalf of the principal without consideration has been deemed to be a supply.
-
- As per section 182 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, an “agent” is a person employed to do any act for another, or to represent another in dealings with third person. The person for whom such act is done, or who is so represented, is called the “principal”.
- As delineated in the definition, an agent can be appointed for performing any act on behalf of the principal which may or may not have the potential for representation on behalf of the So, the crucial element here is the representative character of the agent which enables him to carry out activities on behalf of the principal.
- Further, the two limbs of any supply under GST are “consideration” and “in the course or furtherance of business”. Where the consideration is not extant in a transaction, such a transaction does not fall within the ambit of supply. But, in certain scenarios, as elucidated in Schedule I of the CGST Act, the key element of consideration is not required to be present for treating certain activities as One such activity which has been detailed in para 3 of Schedule I (hereinafter referred to as “the said entry”)is reproduced hereunder:
3. Supply of goods
(a) by a principal to his agent where the agent undertakes to supply such goods on behalf of the principal; or
(b) by an agent to his principal where the agent undertakes to receive such goods on behalf of the principal.
It may be noted that the crucial factor is how to determine whether the agent is wearing the representative hat and is supplying or receiving goods on behalf of the principal.
Thus, the key ingredient for determining relationship under GST would be whether the invoice for the further supply of goods on behalf of the principal is being issued by the agent or not.
Where the invoice for further supply is being issued by the agent in his name then, any provision of goods from the principal to the agent would fall within the fold of Schedule I of the CGST Act.
In the instant case, the applicant issues an invoice in his name for further supply to a buyer/purchaser (as directed by the Principal i.e. NAFED), therefore, this activity is a supply of goods in terms of Schedule I of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017, and attracts GST as applicable (the supply of goods by an agent on behalf of the principal without consideration has been deemed to be a supply).
VI. The GST applicability on outward Supply of pulses (without any brand name)
The relevant portion of the Notification No. 02/2017 Central Tax (Rate) dated 28.06.2017 is reproduced below:
| Si. No. | Chapter ,Section or Heading | Description of Goods |
| (1) | (2) | (3) |
| 45 | 0713 | Dried leguminous vegetables, shelled, whether or not skinned or split. |
Thus, the applicant is not liable for charging RGST/CGST or IGST on outward supply of pulses (without any brand name) through Krah Vikrah, Sahakari Samiti as the same is exempted under Notification No. 02/2017-Central Tax (Rate) dated 28.06.2017 in accordance to section 11(1) of CGST Act, 2017.
The GST applicability on outward Supply of oilseeds (other than of seed quality)
The relevant portion of the Notification No. 02/2017 Central Tax (Rate) dated 28.06.2017 is reproduced below:
| Sl. No. | Chapter ,Section or Heading | Description of Goods |
| (1) | (2) | (3) |
| 63 | 12 | All goods other than of seed quality |
| 64 | 1201 | Soya beans, whether or not broken other than of seed quality. |
| 65 | 1202 | Ground-nuts, not roasted or otherwise cooked, whether or not shelled or broken other than of seed quality. |
| 66 | 1203 | Copra other than of seed quality |
| 67 | 1204 | Linseed, whether or not broken other than of seed quality |
| 68 | 1205 | Rape or colza seeds, whether or not broken other than of seed quality. |
| 69 | 1206 | Sunflower seeds, whether or not broken other than of seed quality |

Thus, the applicant is liable for charging RGST/CGST or IGST on outward supplies of oilseeds (other than of seed quality) made through Krah Vikrah, Sahakari Samiti and the same attracts GST@5% (SGST 2.5% + CGST 2.5%) under Notification No. 01/2017-Central Tax (Rate) dated 28.06.2017 in accordance to section 11(1) of CGST Act, 2017.
VII. Section 51 of CGST/RGST Act, 2017 has made provision in relation to Tax Deduction at Source(TDS) which is as below:-
51. (1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Act, the Government may mandate,
(a) a department or establishment of the Central Government or State Government; or
(b) local authority; or
(c) Governmental agencies; or
(d) such persons or category of persons as may be notified by the Government on the recommendations of the Council,
(hereafter in this section referred to as “the deductor”), to deduct tax at the rate of one per cent. from the payment made or credited to the supplier (hereafter in this section referred to as “the deductee”) of taxable goods or services or both, where the total value of such supply, under a contract, exceeds two lakh and fifty thousand rupees:
Provided that no deduction shall be made if the location of the supplier and the place of supply is in a State or Union territory which is different from the State or as the case may be, Union territory of registration of the recipient.
Explanation.—For the purpose of deduction of tax specified above, the value of supply shall be taken as the amount excluding the central tax, State tax, Union territory tax, integrated tax and cess indicated in the invoice.
VIII. Further, the Central Government by way of Notification No. 50/2018 (Central Tax) dated 13.09.2018 appointed the 1st day of October, 2018, as the date on which the provisions of section 51 of the said Act shall come into force with respect to persons specified under clauses (a), (b) and (c) of sub-section (1) of section 51 of the said Act and the persons specified below under clause (d) of sub-section (1) of section 51 of the said Act, namely:-
(a) an authority or a board or any other body, –
(i) set up by an Act of Parliament or a State Legislature; or

(b) Society established by the Central Government or the State Government or a Local Authority under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 (21 of 1860);
(c) public sector undertakings.
On examination of submissions of the applicant, it is found that the applicant is a co-operative society established under Rajasthan Co-operative Societies act, 1953 (Now 2001). The applicant is not a department, not a local authority, not a governmental agency and the co-operative society act is also different thus do not fall under any category of Section 51 of the CGST/RGST Act , 2017 and is not eligible to become a TDS deductor. Therefore provisions of TDS are not applicable in accordance with Section 51 of the CGST/ RGST Act, 2017.
6. In view of the foregoing, we rule as follows:-
