Gst on purchases of second-hand goods

that I am aware of... but what if the seller is an ordinary person not having any business? Say a person buys a new mobile and sells after a year to a registered trader dealing in second hand mobiles. would your answer be different?

but section 9(4) of RCM states that "............. all the provisions of this Act shall apply to such recipient as if he is the person liable for paying the tax in relation to the supply of such goods or services or both..."

So, since this transaction would be in the course of business of the recipient of goods, would not it be taxable??

In short, under RCM, the course of business needs to be checked from recipient's point of view and not from supplier's point of view.

what say...

Yes rcm chargeable if second hand goods are purchased from unregistered dealer by a registered dealer 

 

thanks. hope this interpretation is accepted to the department as well. Another doubt is that whether a second-hand goods dealer can avail the margin scheme specified in valuation rules i.e. pay tax on difference of sales and buys. The dealer purchases goods from unregistered retails customers and sells goods to unregistered retails customers. whether the dealer can pay gst on sale value less purchase value??
