GST ON POWDER COATING

[Asha D]

Dear Sir,

As per the discussion I understood that the GST @12% is applicable in case of jobwork of powder coating but I have query that whether the same rate is applicable if the jobwork done is of unregistered or GST @18% will be applicable in case of unregistered
