Govt of india has subcontracted a work of say 100cr to abc ltd (the principal contractor)
Now the principle contractor has subcontracted the work to a sub contractor on a back to back basis for 5% royalty which bring the contract price to 95 Cr
Now few deductions has made by govt of india for which they have not raised any invoices.
Deductions -
penelty 2 cr
Labour cess 1 cr
Some labour charges of 0.5 cr
Now, these deductions were passed on to the subcontractor.
Question is whether subcontractor will reduce the revene or treat it as a cost.
