No GST to be charged from State government being not a recipient under GST


Quick Summary
The West Bengal Authority for Advance Ruling (AAR) has ruled that fair price shops, like the one operated by M/s. Chanchal Saha, are not required to charge GST to the State government. This is because the actual supply of goods, such as kerosene and sugar, is made to ration card holders, who are the recipients. The shop owner receives payment from these card holders, and no consideration is provided by the State government for these specific transactions.

Court :
AAR, West Bengal
