Quick Summary
Generally, transferring title in goods without any payment (consideration) is not considered a supply, meaning no GST is applicable. However, if the goods have had Input Tax Credit (ITC) claimed on them, GST may be payable. A taxable person transferring title to a related person, such as a branch, is treated as a supply and GST will be charged, even if there's no direct payment.
In general principle, transfer of title in good without consideration will not be treated as supply so no GST.
But, transfer of title in good by taxable person to related person (I.e. deemed distinct person e.g. branch) shall be treated as supply and GST shall be charged.
