AI Summary

Reverse charge mechanism: recipient need not pay tax again and may claim input tax credit when supplier charges GST.
Sponsorship services supplied to a body corporate or partnership fall under the reverse charge mechanism, but if the supplier has charged GST on the invoice the recipient need not pay tax again under reverse charge and may claim the tax paid as input tax credit, reflecting the principle that one transaction should not be taxed twice.
