FAQ :
The circular clarifies the GST treatment on co-insurance and reinsurance transactions, based on recommendations from the 53rd GST Council meeting.
It covers the apportionment of co-insurance premium by the lead insurer to the co-insurer and services by an insurer to a reinsurer where ceding or reinsurance commission is deducted.
The lead insurer must pay GST on the entire amount of premium paid by the insured for the co-insurance services.
The reinsurer must pay GST on the gross reinsurance premium, including any deducted ceding or reinsurance commission.
The GST Council recommended regularising past GST payments for these transactions on an 'as is where is' basis for the period from July 1, 2017, to October 31, 2024.
The amendments were enacted via the Finance (No. 2) Act, 2024, and brought into force on November 1, 2024.
