Yes, RCM (Reverse Charge Mechanism) is applicable on manpower supply services under GST in certain situations.
When is RCM applicable on manpower services? If a registered person receives manpower supply services from an unregistered service provider, then the recipient (registered person) is liable to pay GST under reverse charge. This means the registered business has to pay and deposit GST on such services directly to the government. If the manpower service provider is registered under GST: They will charge GST on their invoice, and RCM does NOT apply.
