GST Forum Debates Tax Liability: Entire Turnover vs. Excess Over Rs. 20 Lakhs Under Section 22 of CGST Act A discussion on a GST forum addresses whether a service provider exceeding a turnover of Rs. 20 lakhs in a financial year is liable to pay GST on the entire turnover or only on the amount exceeding Rs. 20 lakhs. Participants refer to Section 22 of the CGST Act, which mandates registration and tax payment on turnover exceeding the threshold. Opinions vary, with some suggesting tax is due only on the excess amount, while others argue for tax on the entire amount if a single invoice surpasses the limit. The debate highlights differing interpretations and the need for practical solutions. (AI Summary)
