    Sir i am purchases from un registerd dealer for Rs.10 laks to Rs.15 laks product of polyster cloth (hsn code 5407) so, we are payable RCM or not please clarify

  2. Sanchar says:

    Thus the RCM on purchases of Cashew from unregistered dealers in still remaining or have been withdrawn w.e.f 01.02.2019. Please help…!!!

  3. Dr A Subrahmanyam says:

    Notification 01/2019 – Central Tax is effective from 1st February 2019.  Accordingly, Notfn 08/2017 dt. 28th June 2017 stands rescinded.  The effect is that GST is not payable on Reverse Charge Basis.  To elucidate further,  Section 9(3) of CGST Act is the “Authority”  and Section 9(4) is the “Charging Section.”   Accordingly, the Government has the power to impose RCM but for now and precisely from 1st February, no Tax is payable for URD Purchases.

  4. Dr A SUBRAHMANYAM says:

    Section 9(3) of CGST Act is Empowerment and Section 9(4) of CGST Act is the “Charging Section.” Notification issued under Sec 9(4), i.e., 08/2017, is now rescinded. Accordingly, no tax is payable under the RCM

  5. JITENDER KUMAR RANKA says:

    Mere reading of Notification No. 01/2019–Central Tax (Rate), Any one can conclude oh, RCM on purchase from unregistered suppliers shall have to be paid by registered dealer who purchases.

    But it is not so, Why? Read it:
    The notification of exemption is rescinded as it is not needed now since section 9(4) it self has been amended to the effect that there would be no RCM for purchase of goods/services unless government wants to levy by notification. This has been effected vide CGST amendment Act 2018 (31 of 2018) which is effective from 1st Feb 2019

    RCM for specific goods/services under Section 9(3) remains.

    While in two meetings before last it had been concluded by GST council to remove RCM under section 9(4).
