This query is : Open

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies GST obligations for subcontractors providing services to main contractors within Special Economic Zones (SEZs). Generally, if the place of supply is the SEZ, the subcontractor's supply is considered Nil rated, similar to the main contractor. However, this is contingent on having a Letter of Undertaking (LUT) or Bond. Without a LUT/BOND, the supply becomes taxable, with an 18% IGST applicable.

29 August 2023 Yes, I agreed with Mr CA R SEETHARAMAN Sir... Also if the supply with LUT/BOND then its Nil rated supply. If the LUT/BOND not available then its taxable and IGST 18% applicable.
