Secondary discounts under GST clarified: input tax credit, consideration treatment, and dealer promotional services depend on the underlying supply arrangement. Clarification on secondary or post-sale discounts under GST states that input tax credit need not be reversed where financial or commercial credit notes do not reduce the original transaction value. A post-sale discount to a dealer is generally not consideration for onward supply or for a separate service when the dealer acts on a principal-to-principal basis and no independent service is rendered. GST arises only where specific promotional or related services are expressly agreed for a defined consideration.
