GST IMPORT PURCHASE OF GOODS

 

DEAR SIR,

WE HAVE  IMPORTED THE GOODS AND STORED THE GOODS AT BONDED WARE HOUSE AT NAVA SHEVA PORT AND THE SAME GOODS HAVE SOLD  ( EXPORT SALES OUT OF INDIA). NO GST WAS PAID ON IMPORT AS WE HAVE SUBMITTED BOND.

IN SHIPPING BILL FOR IMPORT PURCHASE IGST DUTY AMT IS SHOWN . BUT WE HAD NOT PAID IGST AS WE SUBMITTED BOND. 

KINDLY ADVISE GSTR3B & GSTR1 IMPORT PURCHASE ENTRY IN GST RETURN

THANKS & REGARDS

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the GST implications for imported goods stored in a bonded warehouse and subsequently exported. Goods removed from a customs station to a bonded warehouse without payment of duty or IGST are not considered a supply until they cross India's customs frontiers. If these goods are directly exported from the bonded warehouse, they are treated as merchant exports and are not subject to IGST or duty. The correct reporting in GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B for such transactions is also discussed.

In my opinion , Bond  is applicable  for export  of Goods or service  without payment of  IGST , however in case of  Import purchase  you have pay  IGST  under  RCM  basis  . You have to show in GSTR 1 under  RCM   and  can take credit  in GSTR3B 

please  confirm with others also . 

 

Have you filed any Ex-Bond bill of Entry ?????

Dear Namrata

The custom Act ,1962 provides for removal of goods from Custom station to a warehouse without payment of duty.The said Act has been amended to include "warehous" in the Defination of "Custom Area"

So the goods being transferred or deposited in custom bonded warehouse ,the Importer is not required pay duty & IGST on same . 

As per Circular 3/1/2018 GST : the Importer file into-bond bill of entry & stores the goods into custom bonded warehouse & thereafter supplies such goods to some other person who then file Ex-bomd bill of entry for clearing the said goods from Custom bonded warehouse for home consumption then IGST & duty is leviable. 

And if we read the sub Section (2) of Section 7 of IGST Act , it's not supply till the imported goods cross the Custom Frontiers of India. And as per Circular IGST is levied & collected at the time of clearances of goods from warehouse for home consumption. 

Since the goods were directly exported from custom bonded warehouse  & not brought for consumption in India , not crossing the custom frontier. So it's not an supply , it can be cover under Merchant Export 

SO ITS MERCHANT Export & cover under Schedule III , you need to report such in Table 8 of GSTR 1. & In GSTR 3B it can be reported under Table 3.1(e)

Final conclusion : Neither the supply goods nor supply of Services. So No Duty & IGST is applicable.
