Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the applicability of Regulation 07 (2% TDS on metal scrap purchases) for manufacturers. It confirms that manufacturers using metal scrap as raw material are generally liable for TDS, provided their turnover exceeds ₹10 crores. However, exemptions may apply if the scrap is used for manufacturing, the manufacturer has valid GST registration, and the purchase value in a single transaction doesn't exceed ₹5 lakhs. The conversation also touches upon recent potential changes to this threshold.

Regulation 07 (TDS 2% on purchase of metal scrap) is applicable to manufacturers like you, who use metal scrap as raw material.

 As per the regulation, every manufacturer who purchases metal scrap is required to deduct TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) at the rate of 2% from the purchase amount.

 This is applicable if the manufacturer's turnover exceeds ₹10 crores in the previous financial year.

However, if you are a registered manufacturer and have a valid GST registration, you may be exempt from TDS under certain conditions: 

1. If you are a registered person (manufacturer) under GST and have a valid GSTIN. 

2. If the metal scrap is used as raw material for manufacturing goods.

3. If the value of the metal scrap purchased does not exceed ₹5 lakhs in a single transaction. 

To confirm your specific situation, consult a chartered accountant or tax expert who can assess your circumstances and provide personalized guidance. 

Additionally, you may want to review the relevant notifications and circulars issued by the tax authorities for further clarification. 

Here are some relevant notifications and circulars: - Notification No. 52/2018 - Central Tax dated 20.09.2018 - Circular No. 58/32/2018 - GST dated 04.09.2018
