3.In what way we have to bill to Client .
4.Weather we have to collect Gst @ 5% or 18% of Commission received to our agency or both
at preset we re giving bills to client as for example as follows:
Goss Bill amount 10000
Less Dis @10% 1000
Net amount 9000

Publication Gst 425
(10000*85/100*5/100)

Agency GST 270
(10000*15/100*18/100)

Please guide we on this issue.

13 August 2017 Whether invoice mentions about the full value of advertisement and commission payable to you is deducted therefrom or invoice is made by the Newspaper agency only for net cost of advertisement?

13 August 2017 thank you for your reply ,
Some News papers Specifically mentions as agency discount (i.e 15%)in their invoice and collect Gst @5% after discount amount .and sends the invoice to us

13 August 2017 It looks that the Newspaper is not paying any commission but charging a lower price for adv. from you and you are also billing on full value. In view of this GST @ 5% is applicable.
