GST is not applicable .But you need to check other provisions like was it a stock to partner entity ?

Was the stock in trade converted to capital asset before making investment in partnership firm ?
Income provisions have to be complied to plan GST

Sir,

It is partner's asset.

 

If it's asset then there is no supply of goods or services.So It is not liable for GST
The term GST STANDS GOODS AND SERVICE TAX.
PARTNERS ASSET TO FIRM FOR SOME CONSIDERATION IS NOT CONSIDERED AS CAPITAL GAIN NEITHER GST IS APPLICABLE .
REASON 1. THE ASSET ARE NOT IN THE BOOKS OF THE FIRM OR HELD AS STOCK IN TRADE
REASON 2. IF STOCK IN TRADE CONVERSION TO CAPITAL ASSET THEN IT IS CERTAINLY WORTH MENTIONING.

If the asset is of nature of goods or services being transferred to a partnership firm then GST will become applicable. The firm will be eligible for ITC subject to section 16 and 17. Consideration not required since related parties.

I beg to differ

Concept of mutuality comes into picture, i.e. whether partner and partnership firm must be seen as two separate persons in the eyes of GST law? For example, profit of a partnership firm liable in whose hands? 

Considering the retrospective change in Section 7(1)(aa) impact too. But generally, for services rendered, firm is required to pay tax. Partner having separate GSTIN maybe for other taxable supplies in his own name. 

It could be covered under 'related persons' for the purpose of GST, 'Schedule I' would kick in, and supply of 'goods' (including assets as goods definition is very wide) could be subject to GST. 

Although this seems unnatural, this may need to be further studied. 

All are assumptions.
First the partner must have gstin no. and firm has obviously got gstin no.
In this context the underlying provisions . Sec 7(1) of GST ACT HAS SUCH PROVISIONS.

There is no assumption. The querist himself said that the partner has a separate registration. First learn to read the question.
