Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the Goods and Services Tax (GST) implications for businesses dealing in second-hand rice mill machinery. It addresses whether Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) applies when purchasing used machinery from unregistered dealers, especially from closed or inoperative mills. The consensus is that RCM is not applicable on the purchase itself, but GST is payable on the profit margin. Additionally, it confirms that e-way bills are required for transporting such second-hand machinery, regardless of whether the transaction is intra-state or inter-state.
