Dear Ramesh ji,
I am confused about the GST payable under RCM. I am mentioning an example below, kindly explain the things accordingly:
Inter state purchse of taxi service: INR 20000/-
Interstae purchase of hotel: INR 19000/- (Room charges 2600/- per day + food 1200/- day)
total purchases 20000+19000= 39000/-
total billed to client 41000/- + GST @ 5% (2050)= 43050/-
GST INR 2050/- has been paid through GSTR 3B.
Now in GSTR 1 How should I show my purchases and apply the tax on purchases from unregistered vendors. What will be the tax applicable on hotel room? Shall I pay
A- GST 18% on room rent 2600 (i.e. 468/-) + 5%GST on food 1200/- (60)? Final calculation 2600+468+1200+60= 4328/- or
B- GST 18% on Room rent + Food 3800/- (i.e. 684)? Final calculation 3800+684= 4484/-
There is a difference of 156/- in both the calculations. that makes a difference of 780/- in 5 days. Kindly suggest how to proceed.
