Explanation - For the purposes of job work, input includes intermediate goods arising from any treatment or process carried out on the inputs by the principal or the job worker.

Author analysis-

It is also pertinent to add here that the provisions relating to job work are applicable only when registered taxable person intends to send taxable goods for job work to the job worker. In other words these provisions are not applicable to exempted or non-taxable goods or when the sender is a person other than registered taxable person. The principal can send the inputs or capital goods after payment after payment of GST without following the special procedure. In such a case, the job-worker would take the input tax credit and supply back the processed goods (after completion of job work) on payment of GST.

It is also not necessary that job worker and principal be located in same state or Union territory Provisions relating to job work have been adopted in the IGST Act, 2017 (vide Section 20) as well as in UTGST Act, 2017 (vide Section 21). Therefore, job worker and principal can be located either in the same State or in same Union Territory or in difference States or Union Territories.

Extended Meaning of 'Input'

For the purpose of job work, the term 'Input' has been given an extended meaning and shall include

  1. Input sent as such i.e. without carrying out any process on such input; and
  2. Intermediate goods arising from any treatment or process carried out on the input. The said treatment or process may be carried out either by the principal or by the Job worker
