Dear experts

Will an e-commerce operator be liable to pay tax in respect of supply of goods or services made through it, instead of actual supplier? E-commerce operator is Swiggy and supplier- Resturant

TCS Deducted by the E-coomerce operator can be set-off against liability .

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies the GST implications for restaurants selling through Swiggy. It confirms that the e-commerce operator (Swiggy) is not liable for GST on goods supplied by the restaurant. Restaurants can claim the Tax Collected at Source (TCS) deducted by Swiggy and use it to offset their GST liability. The thread also advises that sales made through Swiggy should be reported as B2C transactions.

1. E-commerce operator is not liable be pay any GST on goods supplied by supplier on his behalf.
2. Yes the supplier can claim TCS -GST deducted by e-commerce operator , as it's reflected in supplier's portal under Tab TDS/TCS . & filing the same by Supplier it gets reflected in its Cash Ledger & supplier can pay off his tax liability from the same .

(Can also claim refund from cash ledger)
