Can you share with us that from which Rule or Section of GST Law it is coming that transition stock should not be interstate purchase, import or purchase from URD person, if person wants to apply for composition scheme?

17 June 2017 Hi Soumil,

Ya I got it under Rule 3(1)(b), thank you.

18 March 2018 A regular dealer who migrated from VAT, having in his stock as on 1.7.2017 goods purchased interstate and has made interstate purchases thereafter also and his stock comprises of interstate and intrastate purchases having annual turnover of Rs.75 lacs willing to opt for composition w,e,f, 01.04.2018. Whether he can opt for composition ? Whether the answer would differ if the dealer does not have any opening stock as on 1.7.2017 but makes interstate purchase,and annual sales rs. 50 lacs in 17-18 and closing stock would comprise interstate purchases?
