Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies who is liable to pay GST on late payment interest charged by a supplier. The consensus is that the supplier is responsible for collecting the GST on the interest from the buyer and then remitting it to the government. The buyer is ultimately liable for the GST on this interest, and the supplier should issue an invoice for the interest, including GST, to collect it.

Supplier should collect from the buyer and remit the same to the government.
Buyer would be liable to pay tax on interest. Supplier can raise the invoice for interest along with GST so that the same can be collected from the buyer.
The liability is always on supplier (except rcm cases). But you must collect it from buyer and discharge your liability
An evidence may keep for the liability of buyer.But,buyer may liable to remit gst with interest and penalty ,what amount added on the same goods by him.Cgst Act section62,73,74
