03 October 2023 Respected Experts,

I would request your detailed clarification on opt in to GST Margin Scheme.

I Observed that, Used Goods Dealers can pay GST only for their Margin and not on the entire Sale Value.

Question: 1

For Eg: If Mr. A ( Used Laptop Dealer) Purchase Used Laptop for Rs. 15,000.00 from Local Market ( by Paying GST) and after minor changes he sold it as Rs. 20,000.00

As per the Margin scheme, can we pay tax for Rs. 5000.00 X 18 %? by not claiming the Input tax credit on purchases?

Question 2

If the dealer, procuring used Laptop without paying GST ( Local market) is he still eligible to pay tax under Marginal Rate?

Kindly also advise any other instructions to follow
