GST ON CONVEYANCE CHARGES

[SURYAKANT MITHBAVKAR]

Whether GST is applicable on conveyance charges under RCM.

[Himansu Sekhar]

If it is a GTA, then RCM is applicable. GTA is defined.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Conveying charges is not GTA. It is like travelling allowance. Not taxable under GST. No question of RCM. However, as expense may be part of transaction value.
