Rate is same for Sub-contractors as of Main Contractor .

If rate of Main contractor is 12 % then the rate of sub contractor will also be the 12%

Kindly .Refer Notification 1/2018 CT .(R)

the general rate of GST ON works contract service is 18% vide notification No. 11/2017-CT and no.8 dated 28.06.2017.
However in view works contract is a composite supply and rate cannot be 18% in all cases.

Yes you are correct , but work contract to Govt dept , the rate is 12% & the same being ask by querist. But the main query is what will be rate for Sub-contractors .... & same being replied by me , if it's 18% then same 18% is also applicable to Sub-contractor.

Kindly refer above said Notification
@ pankaj
under which heading the query has taken registration.
let him answer first.
pankaj pls do not jump into conclusions.
@ Sabhyachi

As far as I Understood ,. the query being asked that the main contractor has sublet the contract .
So it falls under the definition of work contract only.

& let the querist decide from reply given .
@ panka
the nature of work is important.
@ sabyasachi
must refer the heading from querist
@ Panjaj & Sabyasachi

the nature of the work is Composit Work under works contract , such as HVAC, UPVC, Fire Fighting etc. all the above work are sublet to subcontractors as SITC basis i.e there is involved of Materials and Labor too.
the query should not be ambiguous.
there are different rates:
1. 12% , 18% and 5%.
different rates are applicable .
for civil work its 12% and 18%..
concessional rate 12% is there.
@ Siba

The main contractor has got the contract from Govt , & it's of work contract or you can refer Tender/Agreement , you can find the Rate of GST therein .

Now if the contract is sublet to Sub-contractor , the rate of GST charge by subcontractors to Main contractor will be the same which the Main contractor will charge to Govt in his bill.

Note : The nature of supply you have described is of work contract but still if any doubt then refer the tender letter.

The GST rate for a works contract comes under service as per the GST Act. Or the GST rate for  services is 18%. The GST rate on a work contract depends on the nature of services that will be provided. Contracts are taxed at the rate of 12% and 18% under most services.
