Charge GST on theĀ margin or profit earned on the goods, that is, the difference between the selling price and the purchase price. This is called theĀ Margin Scheme, which has been given to second-hand goods dealers. However, for a dealer to avail this scheme, the following conditions have to be fulfilled:
The goods should be supplied as is or after minor processing, which does not change the nature of the goods
No input tax credit should be availed on the purchase of the goods
Note:Ā For a dealer who has opted for the margin scheme, there can be a scenario where the second-hand goods are sold at zero margin or for a lesser price than the purchase price. In this case,Ā no GST will be applicableĀ on the supply.
