GST Registration and Procedure

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies GST requirements for an individual who has moved abroad but whose former employer now wants to invoice them for services. Initially, salary payments are exempt from GST. However, if the relationship shifts to a contractual one, it becomes a B2B transaction. As the individual is a non-resident, this is considered an import of service, making the former employer liable for IGST under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM). Consequently, the individual does not require GST registration in this scenario.

27 April 2021 She is non resident. So the service will fall under import of service so IGST payable under RCM by Accenture.
She doesn't require any GST registration.
