ROHIT GOEL
IGST applies to interstate sales from registered dealer in Haryana to unregistered trader in Punjab, regardless of buyer's status. A query was raised regarding the applicable tax when goods are sold by a registered dealer in Haryana to an unregistered trader in Punjab. The discussion concluded that Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) should be charged in this interstate transaction. It was noted that the registration status of the buyer does not affect the tax obligation of the seller. If the buyer is registered, they can claim Input Tax Credit (ITC), but an unregistered buyer cannot. All responses agreed that IGST is applicable due to the interstate nature of the transaction.
