Quick Summary
This discussion explores methods for machine manufacturers to reduce their output tax liability under GST. While the standard calculation shows a payable amount after offsetting input tax credit, strategies like reducing the sale price can effectively lower the tax burden. The core principle is that the GST collected from customers covers the tax paid on purchases, meaning the input tax credit isn't a direct cost.

Output liability is 9000 u have to pay this
You are required to Pay GST output liability after set off of Input tax credit, which you have received from Suppliers of Machinery..
In your case you have to pay GST of RS. 9,000/-

Note : GST paid by you...i.e 9,000 at time of Purchase to Suppliers + 9,000 to Government= total 18,000....it's not your cost, because you already collected that 18,000 from customer/Buyer....So, your cost is Nil.
He can save tax by reducing sale price. :)
