This is a relief to Small Dealers, as this was an extra burden on them.
But that does not mean this exemption is for Small Dealers only.
The decision does not discriminate among Dealers on the basis of Turnover, as far as RCM u/s 9(4) is concerned and as fas as i understand it.
As per the decision (Given Below) regarding RCM u/s 9(4) of 22nd Meeting of the GST Council, this exemption is applicable to all but most beneficial to small dealers.
(The reverse charge mechanism under sub-section (4) of section 9 of the CGST Act, 2017 and under sub-section (4) of section 5 of the IGST Act, 2017 shall be suspended till 31.03.2018 and will be reviewed by a committee of experts. This will benefit small businesses and substantially reduce compliance costs.)___Source: https://pib.nic.in/newsite/PrintRelease.aspx?relid=171466
