Solution is differed based on these ...

The applicability of GST (Goods and Services Tax) on the sale of old furniture and electronics depends on whether the transaction falls under the definition of "Supply" as per GST law and the nature of the transaction. Here are some key points to consider:

  1. Supply under GST: GST is applicable to any supply of goods or services made for a consideration in the course or furtherance of business. So, if the sale of old furniture and electronics is part of your business activities, GST may be applicable.

  2. Second-Hand Goods: The GST law provides a specific provision for the sale of second-hand goods by registered persons. As per this provision, if a registered person sells second-hand goods, the seller has an option to pay GST on the margin of the sale value. In simple terms, GST is levied only on the difference between the selling price and the purchase price (i.e., the profit margin). This provision is available only if the goods being sold were purchased in the past and were used.
