The circular addresses the taxability of ESOP/ESPP/RSU provided by a company to its employees through its overseas holding company. It clarifies that the transfer of securities/shares by the foreign holding company directly to employees of the Indian subsidiary company, and subsequent reimbursement of costs by the subsidiary company to the holding company, does not constitute an import of financial services liable to GST. The circular emphasizes that such transactions are not considered supplies of goods or services under GST law.
