Quick Summary
This discussion explores whether a body corporate is liable to pay GST under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) for rental car services used by their sales team. The key question is whether RCM applies when fuel costs are included, the service provider hasn't issued a tax invoice with 12% GST, and invoices are sometimes in the salesman's name instead of the company's. Guidance suggests RCM is applicable as the company is the ultimate recipient of the service, regardless of who the invoice is addressed to.

Why reverse charge is spplicable here?

If you are a Body Corporate and cost of fuel is included in charges and service provider has not issued tax invoice with 12% GST , then you are liable to pay GST under RCM.

Yes we are a body corporate ,cost of fuel is included in charges ,service provider has not issed tax invoice , but some invoice is in the name of sales man name , some invoice is in the name of our corporate company name.pl.guide
As per Notification 13/2017 under S.no. 15, Any person providing renting of Motor vehicle where the cost of fuel included to the Body Corporate, the Recipient is liable to do RCM.
Note : Any person can be URD or Who is not paying GST @ 12% on FC.
What about rental car bill is in the name of sales person , can liable to pay RCM.

RCM is done by Recepient of services & in this case the ultimate recipient is company who is paying for it.

Thanks for valuable guidance

Sir, is the reasoning behind this because u/s 2(93) of CGST Act, recipient includes his agent; and here salesmen are treated as agents of the company?

Employee use this rent car in his personal capacity for use to company sales work & this expenses reimbursed by company .Is this supply of service consider u/ s 7 of cgst act as employ ee - employeer relationship & does not treated as supply or consider supply of service as agent of company u/s 2(93) of chat act.
Whether we pay RCM by taking reference of sec.2 (93) or not to pay by taking reference of sec.7 as employee - employer relationship.
Please give your valuable opinion.
