LABOUR CHARGES PAID TO GOLDSMITH

This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies GST applicability on labour charges paid to unregistered goldsmiths. While Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) was largely abolished for unregistered suppliers from October 2017, and a notification exempts registered persons from paying CGST under RCM on supplies from unregistered persons, there's a specific point about making charges for gold jewellery. These charges are subject to a 5% GST, payable by the jeweller or business entity, not the customer.

18 February 2024 DEAR SIR,

GST PAYABLE ON LABOUR CHARGES PAID TO UNREGISTERED GOLD SMITH. IF RS 5000/- IS EXEMPTED FROM REVERSE CHARGE OR ANY AMENDMENTS REGARDING THRESHOLD LIMIT OF REVERSE CHARGES APPLICABLE.

THANK YOU
