Thank you all
As per CGST amendment act 2018 , wherein original section 9(4) of CGST act 2017 has been omitted and same section was amended stated that " RCM will be applicable on specified goods or services or both received from an unregistered person pay tax on RCM as per recondition of council , Govt will notify .
( In short GOVT will notify regarding RCM not in all cases we have to pay tax on RCM)
you also refer Notification 1/2019 dated 29/1/19 .

No, this RCM is not applicable. The provisions of section 9(4) of the CGST Act 2017 has been modified and now RCM is applicable only in case of specified goods and services from an unregistered person.
