23 November 2024 Case:
1. An advocate has professional receipts and he has an income of around Rs. 15,00,000/-
2. He has another business i.e., like a farm they buy animals and feed them, and once they reach the exact weight as per the requirement they sell them. He has a turnover of around Rs. 40,00,000/- and as a result he has obtained GST registration.

He'll declare the business receipts in GST,

Doubt:
Is he required to declare the professional receipts in GST? all the receipts are from unregistered persons and hence RCM is not applicable.

23 November 2024 Yes, he must declare these under exempt supply and supply under RCM, whichever applicable.

25 November 2024 As per the provisions of the GST Act, the service provider is not obligated to declare this. The responsibility to declare lies with the recipient of the service. In this case, since the recipient of the service is an unregistered person, the obligation to declare does not apply.

In my opinion, the transaction does not fall under the purview of GST.

25 November 2024 The services to registered dealer are under RCM, while those to unregistered are under exempt category. As a registered dealer you are supplying services!!!
