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.
