Introduction
This Section provides for a registered person to opt for payment of taxes under a scheme of composition, the conditions attached thereto and the persons who are entitled, but not mandated, to make payment of tax under this Scheme. The conditions, restrictions, procedures and the documentation in respect of this scheme are contained in Chapter II of the Central Goods and Service Tax Rules, 2017 from Rule 3 to Rule 7 (Composition Rules).
Analysis
Tax payment under this scheme is an option available to the taxable person. This scheme would be available only to certain eligible persons.
(a) Payment of tax: The composition scheme offers to a registered person, the option to remit taxes on the turnover as against outward supply-wise payment of taxes. In other words, the registered person opting to pay tax under the composition scheme needs only to ascertain the aggregate value of outward taxable supplies, and compute the tax thereon at a fixed rate, regardless of the actual rate of tax applicable on the said outward supply. The rate of tax prescribed in this regard is as under:
- i. In case of manufacturers: 1% (0.5% CGST+ 0.5% SGST) of the turnover in the State/UT (Note: The rate applicable has been reduced from 2% to 1% vide Notification No. 1/2018-Central Tax dated 23.01.2018 effective 01.01.2018);
- ii. In case of food/restaurant services:5% (2.5% CGST+ 2.5% SGST) of the turnover in the State/UT(i.e., in case of composite supply of service specified in Entry 6(b) of Schedule II);
- iii. In case of other suppliers: 1% (0.5% CGST+ 0.5% SGST) of the turnover of taxable supplies in the State/UT (such as like traders, agents for supply of goods, etc.)
(b) Eligibility to pay tax under composition scheme: The conditions for eligibility to opt for payment of tax under the composition scheme is as follows:
i. Registered persons having an ‘aggregate turnover’ as defined under Section 2(6) of the Act (i.e., aggregate of turnovers across all States under the same PAN, including exempt supplies, supplies specified under Schedule I, etc.) does not exceed the prescribed limit in the preceding financial year will be eligible to opt for payment of tax under the composition scheme. Please refer to the discussion on aggregate turnover as explained in the definitions Chapter for a better understanding of the expression. In this regard, the following may be noted:
- The prescribed threshold limit is Rs. 1 crore (and Rs. 75 lacs in case of Special Category States being Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura and Himachal Pradesh); The prescribed threshold limit is Rs. 1.5 crores (including States of Jammu & Kashmir , Assam, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh).
- The aggregate turnover of the registered person should not exceed the said prescribed limit during the financial year in which the scheme has been availed;
- The ‘aggregate turnover’ as computed for a composition taxpayer shall not include any interest income, which is earned by way of supply of services such as extending deposits, etc. where such interest or discount is exempted under the GST Law.
