Composition Scheme - Drinking Water

Dear Sir / Madam,

Mr X is doing a water business also having his own Water plant, and his turnover is around 1 crore for the year.

He sells water with label Packing and also sells in a container without labelling.

He does both Taxable and Exempted sales.

My question, when he choose Composition Scheme should he need to pay 1% tax for exempted sales also?

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the Goods and Services Tax (GST) implications for a drinking water business operating under the composition scheme. The key question is whether the 1% GST rate applies to exempted sales. Experts confirm that manufacturers opting for the composition scheme, even those with mixed taxable and exempted sales, must pay 1% GST (0.5% CGST + 0.5% SGST) on their total turnover within the state, including exempted supplies. Traders, however, have different rules and are only liable for GST on taxable supplies of goods.

I thik you should go for regular registration
Dear Sir, Why should for regular registration?
In comparison scheme there are few limitation. U not take ITC. U not sale inter state
You can opt for COMPOSITION SCHEME Sir if your Aggregate Turnover does not exceeds Rs. 1.5 crore.

As far as the GST Rate is concerned, it is 1% for the Manufacturer ( 0.5% CGST + 0.5% SGST ). This 1% GST needs to be paid on the Turnover in State or Union Territory. Even on Exempted Supplies , you need to pay 1% GST.

Only the Traders are required to pay 1% GST on their "TAXABLE SUPPLY OF GOODS" ( i.e. they are not required to pay GST on exempted supply ) vide Notification No. 01/2018 - CT , dated 01.01.2017.

Refer Notification No. 08/2017 - CT, dated 27.06.2017 read with Notification No. 01/2018 - CT, dated 01.01.2018.

Warm Regards.
Yes ..... if you are engaged in Manufacturing ,you are liable to pay 2% GST (1% CGST + 1% SGST) on Exempted supply also.

Kindly Refer Notification 8/2017 CT & Notification 1/2018 CT
