This discussion addresses a user's query about GST on packing materials used for oil. The user purchases materials at 18% and 12% GST, uses them for oil packing, and sells the oil at 5% GST, resulting in nil GST payable. An expert clarifies that only the 5% GST rate for oil is applicable in this composite supply scenario. The user's treatment is considered correct, provided Rule 86B doesn't apply, and they can use Input Tax Credit (ITC) fully.

The action of the GST officer is not in line with law.You can use ITC 100%,subject to rule 86B, for discharging your output GST liability.
