Dear sir/madam,

1) when we issue invoice in case of works contract and sending some material for doing that work so how we quote item value in e way bill.
2) In case of this type of invoice both material and service elements is clubbed, we taking this service under gst as works contract & mention SAC. we cannot identify value of different material and even we identify the value of different material total of that material value don't match with invoice amt because it also has service element.

please reply
Thankyou
with regards

Hi Ankita,

GST Schedule II clearly mentions that the following are supply of service–

construction of a complex, building, civil structure or a part thereof, including a complex or building intended for sale to a buyer, wholly or partly,
works contract including transfer of property in goods (whether as goods or in some other form) involved in the execution of a works contract

You need to raise the Invoice as a service and relavant SAC code. It is treated as SERVICE ONLY..

No need to generate GST E way bill.

Dear Ma'am,

But eway bill requirement triggers when movement of goods is required and not based on supply of goods or service.

Hence in case of works contract as well for movement of goods from one place to another eway bill will still remain mandatory.

Kindly clarify if otherwise.

But pls also clear, when we have to send material that is to be used in that work contract, how that will move from one state to another with out E way bill,

for example - A based in UP take the work contract in Uttranchal, now the question is that how the material that is to be used in that work contract is dispatched there on the site..

No EWB required for the supply of service

GSTN announced that if the principal supply is purely a supply of service and involving no movement of goods, the e-way bill is not required to be generated.

However, if the movement of some goods is involved along with the principal supply of service, the e-way bill may be generated. Such situations may arise in cases of supply of the following services:

Printing services
Works contract services
Catering services
Pandal or shamiana services

In such cases, the e-way bills may be generated by entering the details of the HSN code of the goods, along with the SAC (Service Accounting Code) of the services involved.
