Time of supply??

 one cement company books of accounts. They were entered an agreement to the government and obtained royalty differment. Agreement entered in pre- GST period. As per the agreement, dealer is liable for payment of royalty wef 01.06.2021. However, they undertook mining activities since 2015. They didn't even pay single penny to government being that they were under differment scheme..Now my query is, does the tax payer liable to pay RCM ?? What is time of supply ..2015 or 2021??

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the time of supply for royalty payments under GST, specifically for a cement company with a royalty deferment agreement predating GST. The core question is whether Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) applies and if the time of supply is the start of mining (2015) or the effective payment date (2021). The consensus points to 2021 as the relevant year for RCM applicability, provided royalty expenses weren't booked or paid before this date.

2021 Exactly
Since the the payment of royalty is effective from 1/6/2021 & I assumed that you would have not book the expenses of royalty before 1/6/2021 nor you have made the payment for the same .

Hence if there is no payment of royalty & neither the expense book in accounting books before 1/6/2021 , the applicability of RCM is effective only after 1/6/2021. (Reference Section 13 of CGST Act )
