Hi, If I (as an individual) sign a contract (instead of being an employee) with an International company and provide IT support to the customer, will I liable to pay GST ( and then took the refund) or filing GST is not at all required ?

If I (as a Private Limited Company) sign a contract with an International company and provide IT support to the customer, will I liable to pay GST ( and then took the refund) or filing GST is not at all required ?

What all taxes are applicable for me in above cases (like Income Tax etc)?

Quick Summary

This discussion clarifies tax liabilities for individuals and private limited companies earning income from international clients by providing IT support. It addresses whether Goods and Services Tax (GST) is applicable, the process involving Letters of Undertaking (LUT) for GST refunds, and general income tax considerations. The advice suggests that while income earned outside India might be taxable elsewhere, UK tax rules and double taxation agreements are crucial factors.
