Interpretation of Notification No. 41/2017-IT (Rate) regarding concessional rate of tax on supply of HDPE Drums for packing Ethyl Alcohol.Admissibility of the Application:The application filed by M/s. Time Technoplast Limited seeking an Advance Ruling under Section 97 of the CGST Act 2017 is deemed admissible as it pertains to the applicability of a notification issued under the CGST/KGST Act 2017.Interpretation of Notification No. 41/2017-IT (Rate):The applicant, a manufacturer of packaging material, supplies HDPE drums to a merchant exporter for packing Ethyl Alcohol. The applicant sought clarification on whether they are eligible for the 0.1% concessional rate of tax under Notification No. 41/2017-IT (Rate). The notification requires goods to be moved directly from the supplier to the Port or a registered warehouse for export. In this case, the HDPE drums supplied by the applicant were not moved directly to the Port or a registered warehouse, thus disqualifying them from the concessional rate of tax.Findings & Discussion:The Authority for Advance Rulings analyzed the applicant's submission and the relevant provisions of the CGST Act. The applicant's claim for the concessional rate of tax was based on the usage of HDPE drums for packing Ethyl Alcohol exported by the merchant exporter. However, the conditions specified in Notification No. 41/2017-IT (Rate) mandate direct movement of goods to the Port or a registered warehouse for export, which was not met in this case.Ruling:The Authority ruled that the applicant is not entitled to the 0.1% concessional rate of tax under Notification No. 41/2017-IT (Rate) for the supply of HDPE Drums used for packing Ethyl Alcohol. The decision was based on the failure to comply with the specific conditions outlined in the notification regarding the movement of goods for export.
