Rule 86B & RCM

Rule 86B:

Whether Cash Paid for RCM will be counted in 1% cash required to be paid under rule 86B.

For Example: I need to pay 5000/- under Rule 86B and I am paying 4000/- under RCM.

Then what amount i need to pay under Rule 86B, Rs. 1000/- or 5000/- ??

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether cash paid for Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) counts towards the 1% cash payment required under Rule 86B. It explains that RCM is payable only in cash, as it's not considered 'Output Tax' and therefore cannot be discharged using the credit ledger. Consequently, RCM payments do not reduce the amount that needs to be paid in cash under Rule 86B.

No....

As RCM is paid on Inward Supply which is not paid through your Credit Ledger Whereas Rule 86B is that you can utilize credit ledger upto 99% to discharge your tax liability.
In addition to above, I would like to add that, RCM is payable in Cash only ( Cash ledger) , So you Can not use credit ledger, just confirm.
Why RCM is paid in Cash ???

As per the defination of Output Tax U/s 2(82) Output Tax excludes the tax payable on RCM & As per Section 49 the credit ledger can utilize against the Ouput Tax. So the RCM is always paid in cash ledger
