AS PER NOTIFICATION 22/2019 CT (R) , READ WITH CIRCULAR 130/49/2019:

CONDITION PRESCRIBE FOR RCM ON RENTING MOTOR VEHICLE

1. RECIPENT SHALL BE BODY CORPORATE

2.SUPPLIER MUST BE OTHER THEN BODY CORPORATE WHO IS PAYING TAX AT RAE 5% WITH LIMITED ITC.

NOW IF WE REFER THE NOTIFICATION 11/2017 CT , IT PRESCRIBE 2 RATES FOR RENTING OF MOTOR VEHICLE

1. 5% WITH LIMITED ITC (MEANS CAN CLAIM ITC FROM SAME LINE OF BUSINESS)

2.12% WITH ITC

NOW IF SUPPLIER HAS OPTED THE SCHEME 12% WITH ITC THEN RCM IS NOT APPLICABLE , BUT IF THE SUPPLIER HAS OPTED THE SCHEME OF 5%(WITHOUT ITC) , THE RECIPIENT IS LIABLE TO RCM.

NOTE :AS PER SECTION 2(62) CGST ACT DEFINITION OF INPUT TAX INCLUDES THE TAX PAID ON RCM , HENCE THE RECIPIENT WHO HAS PAID & DONE RCM CAN CLAIM ITC FOR THE SAME.
