Show AI Summary
Transferable duty credit under RoSCTL - e scrips usable for basic customs duty, subject to export proceeds realisation.

Clarification relating to export of services-condition (v) of section 2(6) of the IGST Act 2017
Show AI Summary
Export of services: Supplies by Indian-incorporated group companies to related foreign-incorporated entities may qualify as exports.
Condition (v) of the IGST Act excludes supplies between establishments that are "merely establishments of a distinct person" per Explanation 1 to section 8. A foreign company's branch/agency in India supplying its foreign establishment is treated as supply between establishments of a distinct person and not export. Conversely, an Indian-incorporated subsidiary or group company is a separate "person" from a foreign-incorporated company; supplies by the Indian-incorporated entity to related foreign-incorporated establishments may qualify as export of services, subject to other conditions in section 2(6).
Clarification in respect of certain GST related issues
Show AI Summary
Input tax credit on debit notes now tied to debit note date, altering eligibility for credit under amended GST provision.
Amendment to section 16(4) delinks debit note date from underlying invoice date for ITC: the relevant financial year for ITC on a debit note is the debit note's issuance date, and the amended rule governs ITC availment on or after January 1, 2021. E-invoices issued under rule 48(4) may be verified by producing the electronic QR code with IRN instead of a physical invoice. The refund restriction in the first proviso to section 54(3) applies only to goods actually subject to export duty; nil-rate or exempt goods are excluded.
Clarification on doubts related to scope of “Intermediary”
Show AI Summary
Intermediary services clarified: arranging or facilitating supplies is distinct from supplying the main service, exclusions specified.
Clarification defines an intermediary as one who arranges or facilitates supply of goods, services or securities between two or more persons and excludes any person who supplies the main goods, services or securities on his own account. It requires at least three parties, two distinct supplies (main and ancillary), a subsidiary agent/broker role for the intermediary, and excludes subcontracting. The place-of-supply provision for intermediary services applies only when the supplier or recipient is located outside India. Classification depends on contractual facts and the characteristics listed.
Clarification regarding extension of time limit to apply for revocation of cancellation of registration
Show AI Summary
Revocation of registration cancellation deadlines clarified under Assam GST, with extended filing timelines and fresh application treatment.
Extension of the time limit to apply for revocation of cancellation of registration under the Assam GST framework is clarified for cases where the due date for filing such application falls within the specified COVID-affected period. The benefit applies to cancellations under clause (b) or clause (c) of section 29(2), regardless of whether the revocation application is unfiled, pending, rejected by the proper officer, pending in appeal, or rejected in appeal. The circular also clarifies how the general extension notification interacts with the additional extension powers under the proviso to section 30(1).
Swing pricing framework for mutual fund schemes
Show AI Summary
Swing pricing for open ended debt funds: optional partial swing in normal times, mandatory full swing during market dislocation.
A regulatory swing pricing framework for open ended debt mutual funds (excluding certain gilt and overnight funds) mandates a hybrid approach: AMCs may apply partial swing in normal times following AMFI prescribed thresholds and disclose the mechanism in SIDs, while SEBI declared market dislocation triggers mandatory full swing for high risk schemes identified by risk o meter and PRC matrix placement. A minimum swing factor matrix by credit and interest rate risk applies; NAVs for incoming and outgoing investors are adjusted, disclosures and AMC/trustee approved policies are required, and scheme performance is reported on unswung NAV.

Directions for Review, Detection and Prevention of Malpractices in GST Refunds by Proper Officers
Show AI Summary
GST refund oversight requires verification, zonal review, analytics, and disciplinary or criminal action against detected malpractice.
GST refund controls require verification of ward-transfer applications and review of refunds for indicators of malpractice, especially where refund volumes are unusually high. Zonal in-charges must report suspicious cases and confirm where no cases are found. Vigilance must initiate departmental and criminal action when malpractice is detected, develop safeguards with the Systems and EDP branches, and use data analytics to identify abnormal refund patterns. Zonal officers must periodically review ward-level refunds and act against detected malpractice.
Clarification in respect of certain GST related issues
Show AI Summary
Input tax credit timing for debit notes: debit note date fixes the financial year for ITC eligibility, effective from Jan 2021.
Amendment delinks debit note date from underlying invoice date: for debit notes, the debit note issuance date determines the relevant financial year for the ITC time bar; the amended rule governs ITC availment on or after January 1, 2021. E invoices: production of the QR code with the Invoice Reference Number (IRN) electronically is sufficient during movement of goods; physical tax invoice need not be carried. Refunds: restriction on refund of unutilized ITC applies only to goods actually subject to export duty at export time; goods with nil or exempted export duty are excluded.

Clarification relating to export of services-condition (v) of section 2(6) of the IGST Act 2017
Show AI Summary
Export of services: supplies by Indian-incorporated subsidiaries to foreign parents can qualify as exports if other conditions are met.
The circular clarifies that a company incorporated in India and a foreign company incorporated outside India are separate "person" entities under the CGST Act and therefore not "merely establishments of a distinct person" under Explanation 1; accordingly, services supplied by an Indian-incorporated subsidiary/sister/group concern to establishments of the foreign-incorporated company outside India are not barred by clause (v) of the export of services definition and may qualify as export of services, subject to the other statutory conditions including supplier and recipient locations, place of supply and payment in convertible foreign exchange.
Clarification relating to export of services-condition (v) of section 2(6) of the IGST Act 2017.
Show AI Summary
Export of services permits supplies by Indian incorporated group companies to foreign incorporated related entities, subject to statutory conditions.
Export of services excludes supplies between Indian and overseas establishments of the same person, including branches, agencies and representative offices. However, an Indian-incorporated subsidiary, sister concern or group concern and its foreign-incorporated related company are separate persons and legal entities. Services supplied by the Indian company to the foreign company's overseas incorporated establishments are therefore not barred by the distinct-establishments condition and may qualify as export of services where all other statutory conditions are met.
Clarification in respect of certain GST related issues.
Show AI Summary
Input tax credit rules clarify debit-note timing, electronic e-invoice verification, and export refund eligibility for non-duty-bearing goods.
From 1 January 2021, the time limit for input tax credit on a debit note is determined by the financial year of the debit note, not that of the underlying invoice. For e-invoiced goods in transit, electronic production of the QR code with the Invoice Reference Number substitutes for a physical tax invoice. Refund of accumulated unutilised input tax credit on exports is restricted only for goods actually liable to and bearing export duty; nil-rated, exempt, or non-scheduled goods are outside that restriction.
Clarification on doubts related to scope of "Intermediary".
Show AI Summary
Intermediary services require a distinct facilitation role; principal-to-principal suppliers and subcontractors performing main services remain excluded.
Intermediary service requires three parties, comprising two principals making the main supply and a third person who separately arranges or facilitates that supply in a supportive agent-like role. A person supplying the main goods, services or securities on a principal-to-principal basis is excluded. Subcontractors performing the main service, wholly or partly, are not intermediaries merely because they interact with the customer. Classification depends on the contractual terms and facts of each arrangement, while the special place-of-supply rule applies only where either service provider or recipient is outside India.
Order under section 119(2)(b) of the Income Tax Act, 1961 for filing applications for settlement before the Interim Board for Settlement.
Show AI Summary
