Sir,
1.I am Grinding Crystal Sugar for clients on contractual basis. Crystal Sugar is supplied by clients and is ground and bulk packed by me. Ground Sugar (Pulverized Sugar) is then transported back to client. I get paid for my Job work. What will be SAC Code for this activity and percentage of GST.
2.The Freight for finished good (in this case pulverized sugar) that I transport to the client is paid by me. What is the GST percentage on transportation and how do I raise the Tax Invoice for the same. Am I eligible for ITC in this case and how.
Regards.
