04 October 2019 As per Goods and Services Tax (GST) provisions, beginning October 1, 2018, e-commerce companies deduct 1% tax collected at source (TCS) before making payments to their suppliers.
The e-commerce companies are not liable to collect TCS on supplies made by entities with turnover not exceeding ₹ 20 lakh and are not registered under GST, the CBIC has said.
e-commerce companies, whether domestic or foreign, would have to register themselves in each state/UT as the obligation for collecting TCS will be there for every intra-state or inter-state supply.

Foreign e-commerce operator, which does not have a physical presence in a particular state/UT, were asked to appoint an agent on his behalf for the purpose of TCS registration.

“In order to facilitate the obtaining of registration in each State/UT, the e-commerce operator may declare the Head Office as its place of business for obtaining registration in that State/UT where it does not have physical presence, the CBIC had said.
