08 March 2018 How to show Sale in Course of Import / High Sea Sales in GSTR1?

Case:

Party A Goods Imported in India and kept in FTWZ. Party A then made a contract with Party B and Party B cleared the goods from FTWZ under Bill of Entry in their name. Thus original Inbound Clearance from Port to FTWZ is done by Party A whereas Outbound Clearance i.e. for Home Consumption is done by Party B by doing Bill of Entry and paying IGST.

Now Party A wants to bill Party B whether there will IGST on such Sale ? How to show this transaction in GSTR1 ?

09 March 2018 In my views ...High sea sales will not be effected by GST. Party A will not bill to Party B a tax invoice charging IGST.
As under High sea sales it the last person who clears the goods from the customs is liable to pay IGST.

09 March 2018 Yes indeed ! But there will be a Invoice made from Party A to Party B. The question is how to show this in GSTR1 ?

As a Non-GST Sale or Exempt Sale ?

30 October 2026 A sale of goods lying in an FTWZ before clearance for home consumption is not a high-sea sale, but IGST is collected only once at customs from Party B (Circular 3/1/2018-IGST, now Schedule III para 8(a)); Party A shows it in GSTR-1 Table 8 as a non-GST supply, and since 1 Oct 2023 its value counts as exempt supply for ITC reversal under Rule 42/43.
