Dear expert
Below is the scenario, please let me know taxability under the GST
We wish to supply goods to our Indian customer. We are raising purchase order to overseas manufacture, and goods will be shipped to India directly to our customer in India. All customs clearance will be done by our customer ( port of import,Gujarat). We (situated in Maharashtra) will raise the invoice to Indian customer (Gujarat).
Please let me know.
Whether we need to raise GST tax invoice, if yes
What will be the tax i.e. Whether this is an interstate or intra-state transaction?
GST Implications for Direct Overseas Shipment to Indian Customer: Interstate or Intrastate Supply? A discussion on a forum addresses the GST implications of supplying goods to an Indian customer, where the goods are procured from an overseas manufacturer and shipped directly to the customer in Gujarat. The main issue is whether the supplier, based in Maharashtra, should raise a GST tax invoice and whether the transaction is interstate or intrastate. It is clarified that if the foreign supplier invoices the Maharashtra-based supplier, they must handle customs formalities and pay applicable taxes based on the customer's location. If the customer clears customs, a high seas sale arrangement may be necessary, allowing the customer to pay taxes through the bill of entry. (AI Summary)
