Debate on Correct GST Rate for Plating and Powder Coating: 12% or 18%? Notification No. 20 Examined. A discussion on a forum revolves around the appropriate GST rate for job work involving plating and powder coating. The query seeks clarification on whether the GST rate should be 12% as per Notification No. 20, given the current rate of 18%. Experts provide varying opinions: some argue that the process does not alter the goods' character, thus falling under a 12% rate, while others highlight the absence of a clear definition for 'manufacturing service' in GST laws, making the issue debatable. References to past decisions and definitions under the CGST Act are also discussed. (AI Summary)
