Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies a metal scrap trader's query regarding Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) GST. The advice confirms that RCM GST must be paid on the actual purchase price of the scrap metal, not a reduced or restructured value. The RCM tax paid can be fully claimed as Input Tax Credit (ITC), which will offset the output GST liability.

You must pay RCM GST on the actual purchase price (₹30.50), not on a recalculated value.
RCM tax = ₹5.49, which you can fully claim as ITC.
Your output GST is ₹4.77, which is covered by the ITC.
You neither owe extra GST nor can you restructure the purchase value.

Thank you for your response
