Quick Summary

The Chhattisgarh AAR has ruled that the reduced GST rate of 12% on composite supply of works contracts can only be applied prospectively. This means the lower rate is effective from the date the amendment was published, not from an earlier date. The ruling clarifies that unless legislation explicitly states otherwise, changes are presumed to take effect from their publication date.
