cylinder.

CASE-5 A supply priced at 2,000 is made, with a credit period of 1 month for payment. Thereafter
interest of 12% is charged. The payment is received after the lapse of two months from the date of
supply. The amount of 12% p.a. (i.e. 1% per month) on 2,000 for one month after the free credit
period is 20. Such interest will be added to the value and thus, the value of taxable supply will
work out to be 2,020.

month are worked out. However, as the agreement was in existence at the time of supply, and the
discount can be worked out for each invoice, the taxable value will be billed price minus 5%. The
dealer must reverse the proportionate input tax credit on the relevant stock to bring it in line with
the reduced tax.
CASE-9 A company announces turnover discounts after reviewing dealer performance during the

Government to his bank account. Net outflow of the buyer is 600. Find the value of supply of
goods (per cylinder) in the hands of Bharat Gas. -Since, the amount of subsidy is directly credited to
the account holder and not received by the Bharat Gas making the supply. Therefore, such subsidy
will not be considered as part of transaction value as it is not received by the Bharat Gas making the
supply. Hence, transaction value is 800 per cylinder.
Note: Since, the discount was known at the time of supply, and can be linked to this specific invoice, the
discount amount can be reduced from the transaction value.

PROBLEM:20 Supreme Foods Pvt. Ltd. gets an order for supply of processed food from Hotelia Ltd..
Hotelia Ltd. wants the consignment tested for gluten or specified chemical residues. Supreme Foods
Pvt. Ltd. does the testing and charges a testing fee of 15,000 from the Hotelia Ltd.. Supreme Foods
Pvt. Ltd. argues that such testing fess should not form part of the consideration for the sale as it is a
separate activity. Is its argument correct in the light of Section 15?
ANSWER:20 Section 15(2) mandates the addition of certain elements to transaction value to arrive at
taxable value. Section 15(2) (c) specifies that amount charged for anything done by the supplier in
respect of the supply at the time of or before delivery of goods or supply of services shall be included in
taxable value. Since Supreme Foods Pvt. Ltd. does the testing before the delivery of goods, the charges
therefor will be included in the taxable value. Therefore, Supreme Foods Pvt. Ltd.'s argument is not
correct. The testing fee of 15,000 should be added to the price to arrive at taxable value of the
consignment.
PROBLEM:21 Vikash Charitable Institution makes a substantial donation each year to a reputed private
management institution to subsidize the education of low income group students who have gained
admission there. The fee for these individuals is reduced thereby, coming to 1 lakh a year compared
to T 4 lakh a year for other students. What would be the taxable value of the service of coaching and
instruction provided by the institution?
ANSWER:21 As per Section 15(2) (e), the value of a supply includes subsidies directly linked to the price,
excluding State Government and Central Government subsidies. In this case, the subsidy is not from
the Government but is from a charitable institution. Therefore, the subsidy is to be added back to the
price to arrive at the taxable value, which comes to 4 lakh a year.
PROBLEM:22 Floral advertising, an advertising firm, gives an interest-free credit period of 30 days for
payment by the customer. One of its customer paid for the supply 40 days after the supply of service.
Floral advertising waived the interest payable for delay of ten days. The Department wants to add
interest for ten days as per contract. Should notional interest be added to the taxable value?
ANSWER:22 This is a supply that is valued as per transaction value under Section 15(1) as the price is the
sole consideration for the supply and the supply is made to unrelated person. The concept of
transaction value has been expanded to include certain elements like interest which are actually
payable. Once waived, the interest is not payable and is therefore, not to be added to transaction
value.
PROBLEM:23 Leather Products Ltd. sells shoes its dealers, to whom it charges the list price minus
standard discount and pays GST accordingly. When such shoes remain unsold with the dealers, it offers
additional discounts on the stock as an incentive to push the sales. Can this additional discount be
reduced from the price at which the goods were sold and concomitant tax adjustments made?
ANSWER:23 The discounts were not known or agreed at the time of supply of goods to the dealers.
Therefore, such discounts cannot be reduced from the price on which tax had been paid in terms of
Section 15(3).
I. Staggered discount: Sometimes, the supplier offers staggered discount to his customers (increase
in discount rate with increase in purchase volume- Get 10% discount for purchases above 5,000/-,
20% discount for purchases above 10,000/- and 30% discount for purchases above 20,000/ Such

ending discounts to their stockists, etc.-Get additional discount of 1% if you purchase 10000 pieces
in a year, get additional discount of 2% if you purchase 15000 pieces in a year.
Such discounts are established in terms of an agreement entered into at or before the time
of supply though not shown on the invoice as the actual quantum of such discounts gets
determined after the supply has been effected and generally at the year end.
In commercial parlance, such discounts are colloquially referred to as "volume discounts".
Such discounts are passed on by the supplier through credit notes.
III. Staggered discount Volume discounts - deductible as per Section 15(3): It is clarified that discounts
offered by the suppliers to customers (including staggered discount under 'Buy more, save more'
scheme and post supply/volume discounts established before or at the time of supply) shall be
excluded to determine the value of supply provided they satisfy the parameters laid down in
Section 15(3) of the said Act, including the reversal of ITC by the recipient of the supply as is
attributable to the discount on the basis of document (s) issued by the supplier.

product is to be treated in the nature of discount. This discount or value of free article
/extra quantity of the same product which is known at the time of recognition of supply
shall not be included in the transaction value of supply so as to compute GST liability.)
III. Samples : 50 pieces are given free of cost [The goods or services or both which are
supplied free of cost (without any consideration) shall not be treated as 'supply' under GST
(except in case of activities mentioned in Schedule I of the said Act), hence no GST is
payable] -

Taxability of such supply will be dependent upon as to whether the supply is a composite
supply or a mixed supply and the rate of tax shall be determined as per the provisions of
section 8 of the said Act. Since GST rate on tooth paste and tooth brush is 18%, hence 18%
rate will be applicable.)

dealer, in exchange of his existing mobile phone. The registered mobile dealer agreed to accept
72,000 instead of his quote of 75,000, as he would still be in a profitable position (the old mobile
phone can be sold for 10,000). Determine GST implications of such transaction.
ANSWER:26 As per Rule 27 of CGST Rules, 2017, where the price is not the sole consideration for the
supply, the 'open market value' would be the value of the supply. Therefore, 80,000 would be the
value of the supply. As per Notification No. 10/2017-CT (Rate) dated 28-06-2017 w.e.f. 01-07-2017, the

registration, whether in one State or Union territory or more than one State or Union territory shall, in
respect of each such registration, be treated as distinct person for the purposes of this Act. As per
provisions of Section 7 read with Para 2 of Schedule I, transfer of goods between two registered units
of the same person (having the same PAN) will be treated as supply even if the transfer is made
without consideration, as such persons will be treated as 'distinct persons' under the GST law. The
value of the supply would be the open market value of such supply. If this value cannot be determined,
the value shall be the value of supply of goods of like kind and quality. In this case, although goods of
like kind and quality are available, the same may not be accepted as the Tike goods' since they are
supplied by another manufacturer located in Rajasthan whose transportation cost are lower and thus
less expensive in comparison to goods under consideration which were supplied from Karnataka.
Therefore, the value of the supply would be taken at 110% of the cost, i.e., 1650000 (i.e., 110% *
15,00,000).
PROBLEM:33 M/s. Solid Fabricators owned by Kalyan is popularly known for assembly of large machines.
M/ s. SS Fabricators (also owned by Kalyan) is engaged in fabrication of small machines. A factory
contracts M/s. Solid Fabricators for fabrication of its machinery, for a fee of 5,00,000. M/s. Solid
Fabricators sub-contracts the work to M/ s. SS Fabricators for 4,00,000 and ensures supervision of the
work performed by them. Generally, M/s. SS Fabricators charges a fixed sum of 1,200 per man hour
to its clients; it spends 400 hours on this project. Determine value of supply.
ANSWER:33 Since M/s. Solid Fabricators and M/s. SS Fabricators are controlled by Mr. Kalyan, the two
businesses will be treated as related persons. Therefore, 4,00,000 being the sub-contract price will
not be accepted as transaction value. The value of the service would be the open market value being `
480000 (i.e., 1,200 per hour x 400 hours).
PROBLEM:35 SS Ltd. manufactures a customized product 'A' at its unit in Madhya Pradesh and supplies it
to its another establishment, located in Rajasthan. The Contracted sales price is 9,00,000. The cost of
production of Product 'A' is 10,00,000. SS Ltd. is the sole manufacturer of this product. Determine
taxable value of supply and calculate CGST and SGST payable @5%. Would your answer be different if
the establishment in Jaipur is eligible to avail Input tax credit of GST payable by SS Ltd.
ANSWER:35 As per Section 25(4) of the CGST Act, 2017, a person who has obtained more than one
registration, whether in one State or Union territory or more than one State or Union territory shall, in
respect of each such registration, be treated as distinct persons for the purposes of this Act. As SS Ltd.
is the sole manufacturer of this product, hence the value of supply is to be determined as per Rule
28(c) read with Rule 30 of CGST Rules, 2017 i.e. 110% of the Cost of production = 10,00,000 x 110% =
1100000. GST payable shall be 5% of 11,00,000 = 11,00,000 x 5% = 55,000.
In second situation, if establishment in Jaipur is eligible to take Input tax credit, then value declared in
invoice shall be taken to be open market value as per provisions of Rule 28 of CGST Rules, 2017. Hence,
value of taxable supply shall be ` 9,00,000 and GST payable shall be 5% of 9,00,000 = 9,00,000 x 5%
= 45,000.
PROBLEM:36 Grasim Private Ltd. was the only Indian company making and selling a fibre 'A' to companies,
who used this as a raw material. However, the international prices of 'A' dropped, and the companies
began to import it rather than buying from Grasim Private Ltd. The promoters then set up another
company, which had a manufacturing unit that could use 'A', with common directors and senior
management for better integration of functionality. Grasim Private Ltd. began to supply 'A' to this
related concern at low margins. The related concern was not eligible for full ITC. GST was paid on the
price charged. Was the value adopted by Grasim Private Ltd. for supply of 'A' to its related concern,
correct? Elaborate
ANSWER:36 The value adopted by Grasim Private Limited is not correct. As per provisions of Rule 28(3)
of the CGST Rules, 2017, the invoice value could not be the basis of valuation for a supply made to a
related person if the recipient is not eligible for full ITC. Under rule 28(a) of the CGST Rules relating to
valuation, the open market value of fibre 'A' should be the value of the taxable supply of 'A' to the
related concern. In this particular case, the open market value is likely to be the price of imported fibre
'A' plus customs duties, which should be adopted for valuation after excluding the component of IGST
on import as per the definition of open market value in explanation (a) to the CGST Rules relating to
valuation.
CASE-20 A principal supplies groundnut to his agent and the agent is supplying groundnuts of like
kind and quality in subsequent supplies at a price of five thousand rupees per quintal on the day of
the supply. Another independent supplier is supplying groundnuts of like kind and quality to the
said agent at the price of four thousand five hundred and fifty rupees per quintal. The value of the
supply made by the principal shall be four thousand five hundred and fifty rupees per quintal or
where he exercises the option, the value shall be 90 per cent. of five thousand rupees i.e., four
thousand five hundred rupees per quintal.
b) Where the value of a supply is not determinable under clause (a), the same shall be determined
by the application of rule 30 or rule 31 in that order.
PROBLEM:37 Home Appliances Ltd. (Faridabad) has 15 agents located across the State of Haryana (except
Faridabad). The stock of vacuum cleaners is dispatched on Just-In-Time basis from Home Appliances
Ltd. to the locations of the agents, based on receipt of orders from various dealers, on a fortnightly
basis. Home Appliances Ltd. is also engaged in the wholesale supply of vacuum cleaners in Faridabad.
An agent places an order for dispatch of 20 vacuum cleaners on 10-12-2019. Home Appliances Ltd. had
sold 20 vacuum cleaners to a retailer in Faridabad on 8-12-2019 for 1,30,000. The agent effects the
sale of the 20 units to a dealer who would effect the sales on MRP basis (i.e., @ 7,000/unit).
ANSWER:37 The law deems these supplies between the principal and agent to be supplies for the
purpose of GST. Therefore, the transfer of goods by the principal (Home Appliances Ltd.) to its agent
for him to effect sales on behalf of the principal would be deemed to be a supply although made
without consideration. The value would be either the open market value, or 90% of the price charged
by the recipient of the intended supply to its customers, at the option of the supplier. Thus, the value
of the supply by Home Appliances Ltd. to its agent would be either 1,30,000, or 1,26,000 (i.e., 90% *
7,000 * 20), based on the option chosen by Home Appliances Ltd.

Cost Accounting Standard (CAS)-4 issued by the Institute of Cost Accountants of India enumerates various
costs to be included in determining the cost of production of goods. CAS-4 principles are also applicable
for determining the cost of supply of service.

like commission, fee and so on paid on procurement of goods.
However, GST element will not be considered for the purpose of determining the cost of acquisition.
CASE-21 A cosmetics company buys its products from a subcontractor, who supplies “testers” of
each product, to be placed in retail outlets, free of charge. These are of different size from the
product that is sold. The company and the sub-contractor are related persons. As none of the
methods in rules 27 to 30 will work for valuing these testers, the value will have to be determined
by using reasonable means consistent with the principles and general provisions of section 15 and
the Rules. A possible method may be pro rata reduction of the price based on difference in size
from the product that is sold.

I. the supplier acts as a pure agent of the recipient of the supply, when he makes the payment to
the third party on authorization by such recipient; the payment made by the pure agent on
behalf of the recipient of supply has been separately indicated in the invoice issued by the pure
agent to the recipient of service; and
II. the supplies procured by the pure agent from the third party as a pure agent ofthe recipient of
supply are in addition to the services he supplies on his own account. Explanation.-For the
purposes of this rule, the expression “pure agent” means a personwho-
a) enters into a contractual agreement with the recipient of supply to act as his pure agent
to incur expenditure or costs in the course of supply of goods or services or both;
b) neither intends to hold nor holds any title to the goods or services or both so procured or
supplied as pure agent of the recipient of supply;
c) does not use for his own interest such goods or services so procured; and
d) receives only the actual amount incurred to procure such goods or services in addition to
the amount received for supply he provides on his own account.
CASE-26 A is an importer and B is a custom broker. A approaches B for customs clearance work in
respect of an import consignment. The clearance of import consignment and delivery of the
consignment to A would also require taking service of a transporter. So A, also authorizes B, to
incur expenditure on his behalf for procuring the services of a transporter and agrees to reimburse
B for the transportation cost at actual. Here, B is providing customs brokers service to A, which
would be on a principal to principal basis. The ancillary service of transportation, is procured by B
on behalf of A as a pure agent and expenses incurred by B on transportation should not form part
of value of customs broker service provided by B to A. This, in sum and substance is the relevance
of the pure agent concept in GST.
CASE-27 Corporate services firm A is engaged to handle the legal work pertaining to the
incorporation of Company B. Other than its service fees, A also recovers from B, registration fee
and approval fee for the name of the company paid to the Registrar Companies. The fees charged
by the Registrar of Companies for the registration and approval of the name are compulsorily levied
on B. A is merely acting as a pure agent in the payment of those fees. Therefore, A’s recovery of
such expenses is a disbursement and not part of the value of supply made by A to B.
