Provisions of GST have been amended long time back. Pls have a look at the rate notification. Pre-packaged and pre-labelled, is the criterion now.

[PN ELAMPARRUTHY]

Actually department tax charged from 2017 to 2022 July I wrongly mention, they selling unbranded rice with using the disclaimer forgo of actionable claim in the rice bags..

Given above it is apparent that to relinquish the actionable claim or enforceable right on such brand nalncs. the following conditions prescribed in the Annexure-I of the said Notification must be met

(CI) One should file an affidavit to that effect \with the jurisdictional commissioner of Central tax that he is voluntarily foregoing his actionable claim or enforceable right on such brand name

(b) One should on each such unit container, clearly print in indelible ink1 both in English and the local language, that in respect of’ the brand name printed on the unit containers he has foregone his actionable claim or enforceable right voluntarily.

Consequently, the taxpayer is ineligible to claim GST exemption as per Notification No. 28/2017 dated 22.09.2017 for the supply of rice under Nil/ Exempted/ Non-GST category from September 2017 to July 2022. Thus the taxpayer is liable to remit taxes for all their supplies misstated under Nil/ Exempted/ Non-GST- supplies for the period from September. 2017 to July 2022

AI Summary

Taxpayer Denied GST Exemption for Unregistered Brand; Liable for Taxes from 2017 to 2022 Under Notification No. 28/2017. A taxpayer selling rice under an unregistered brand name filed an affidavit in 2019 with the GST range office, claiming exemption. However, a ruling determined the affidavit invalid, and exemption was denied for the unregistered brand, leading to tax liabilities from July 2017 to 2024. A case, 'Shyam Agro Foods v. GST Commissioner,' was referenced as potentially favorable. Replies noted GST provisions have changed, emphasizing the need for pre-packaged and pre-labelled criteria. The taxpayer failed to meet conditions for exemption under Notification No. 28/2017, making them liable for taxes on supplies incorrectly classified as exempt from September 2017 to July 2022.
