Place of supply clarifications alter GST treatment for cross border transport, advertising spaces and co location services.
Clarification sets out revised criteria for determining the place of supply for transportation of goods, advertising services involving physical spaces, and co location (server/hosting) services; the omission of a prior IGST provision requires reassessment of place of supply rules for cross border transportation, while the circular also specifies treatment for outdoor advertising and IT hosting to ensure uniform GST chargeability, invoicing and compliance across field formations.
