Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether GST is applicable on prize money won from TV game shows. The consensus is that GST is generally not applicable as it's not considered a 'supply' under the CGST Act. Instead, winnings are typically subject to Direct Tax at a flat rate of 30.2%. Participants should declare this income under the 'exempted turnover' or 'non-GST' column in their returns.

AS PER SEC 2(52) CGST ACT 2017 

GOODS includes actionable claims 

 

but it is better to say that DIRECT TAX will be applicable @ 30.2% (flat) on winning 

and not the indirect tax 

So I have to show it under exempted turnover

not a supply 

 

As per my view.,

GST not applicable for game winning amount...
Sir pls clarify me under which section it is not considered as my turnover
Bcoz, it's not a supply by You.
So I have to show it under exempted turnover
No need to show it under GST returns...

In case You want to file GSTR 9C then You can show the income under Non-GST column...
What if iam an actor I have participated in a game show for some consideration, then
I will receive both remuneration, if I won I will prize money..
IAM paying gst on remuneration..
in this case whether prize money is taxable???
