Can any please tell me whether GST is applicable on sale of mobile recharge coupons. We are into the business of selling Mobile recharge vouchers/coupons. Before either Vat or service tax are not applied to our business. so we donot have existing service tax or Vat ID's. So please help out in this.

Regards

Hi..
Thanks for the reply.. But If the mobile operator sells the recharge coupons to the distributor, it is trading in the hands of the distributor and he has no service tax liability.
Generally the mobile operators themselves pay the service tax on the denomination of the voucher eventhuogh they sell it for a lesser value to the distributor. Since the entire value is covered and service tax paid by the operator, the Distributor is not liable to pay service tax.
so we have not registered under service tax..

my question is it necessary to be registered under GST.. if necessary kindly tell how to enroll for GST for those who have not registered under service tax
