GST % for Data entry works

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the Goods and Services Tax (GST) applicable to data entry work, particularly when it involves offshore subcontracting. While work for clients outside India is generally GST-exempt, if you are subcontracting locally within India, you will need to charge 18% GST. This applies even if the end client is overseas, as the service is being provided to an Indian intermediary.

12 May 2021 As per my understanding a Person outside India (Mr.A) has allotted work to someone in India (Mr.B)and Mr .B has sub contracted the work to you .

In such cases you working for Mr.B who is in India and in such cases you have to Charge 18%

Hope the Answer is clear? If anything else please ask ..
