I am the buyer in Chattisgarh, and i ordered raw material( MS flat) to seller located in west bengal, and asked them to ship to Job Worker located in West Bengal, about 25 km from the seller. The goods was accompanied by Bill to Ship to Invoice and E-way bill raised by seller mentioning all details of buyer and consignee as above. But was intercepted by GST official only 2km from the seller within an hour of despatch enroute to job worker. Gst official ordered that it will be treated as two supplies, one from West Bengal Seller to me, And other from me to the consignee., As Under IGST act Section 10 subsection b. I m purplexed, as it is my regular work, as i am manufacturer, and always raw material is sent directly from raw material seller to job worker in this modal, and job worker raises his job work invoice after his work. They had imposed heavy penalty of 36%.

But sir my material is held with them, and also truck owner charging heavy penalty. Additionally there is one more issue, that the West Bengal GST officer has invoked the Show Cause Notice MOV 7 not in my name, but instead my representative's name, even when I submitted that I am the owner. The notices are therefore, being not issued in my GSTIN, aren't available in my portal, and the liability will never be in my credit ledgers. The state comm tax Officer instead has created a temporary ID in my representative name, and insisting that since I being interstate out of his jurisdiction, he has to do like this only

High light the issue to next level official with a copy marked to State minister and Finance Miniter and Chairman Indirect taxes. Issue a legal notice to the GST official he is liable for cost involved in illegal detention.
