GST on Discount received after purchase


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the GST implications of discounts received from suppliers after a purchase, particularly for early payments.

While a discount letter from the supplier is helpful, it's not mandatory if no GST is involved.
