Sharing of electricity charges.

Sir, Electrical Energy is exempted goods vide NN. 2/2017 CTR, dated: 27/06/2017, sl.no. 104.

Based on the above info, since both the companies ie. Company A and Company B are under common floor/area, Company A is sharing the electricity to company B without any sub-meter ( due to certain reasons) . For using such electricity, Company A would like to raise the invoice to Company B for sharing of the electricity. Any  GST the implications ?

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the GST implications of sharing electricity charges between two companies, Company A and Company B, operating in a common area. Electrical energy is generally an exempted good. If Company A shares electricity with Company B without a sub-meter and charges only the actual cost (no profit), it is considered an exempted supply. However, if Company A acts as a pure agent and expenses are reimbursed at actuals, no GST is applicable. Any additional charges beyond the actual cost will attract GST.

If it's on the basis of actual value (No profit) then it's Exempted.

Note ; For more precise reply on same kindly eloborate your query.
Since there is no tax liability under GST Act
Thank you so much sir.

DEAR LAXMI KANT

YES ELECTRICITY IS EXEMPTED SUOPLY BY NOTIFICATION 1/2017 CT (R) (UNDER HSN.271600) & IF EXPENSES REIMBURSE IN ACTUALS & "A" COMPANY  IS ACTING AS PURE AGENT COVERED UNDER PROVISION OF RULE 33 , THEN NO GST IS APPLICABLE.

YES ANYTHING ADDITIONAL CHARGED IN CASE WILL ATTRACT GST.
