Question1: Please note that section 142(1) says that principal can remove job worked input without payment of GST.

 

Answer: Thanks for using Law crux GST  in illustration of mail dated 10 October 17 same view point is followed goods are sent directly from the supplier to the job worker and billed to the principal there is no payment of GST by the principle  but  when goods are cleared after job work the job worker has to  charge tax on job charges because it is a service as per Schedule ii Clause 3 of CGST Act  Earlier the job work was covered under negative list of service  tax and notification no 214 /86 of Central excise  In case your view point is different please revert back to us (Reply dt. 11/10/2017)

 

Question2:  If a dealer (Principal) intends to get Job work from a manufacturer (Job worker), whether he can do it or not ? as earlier in the erstwhile Central Excise  Rules Dealer was not allowed. and what will be rate of GST on bulk drug falling under ch. 29.

 

Answer: Please note that the biggest change in law after introduction of GST is that manufacturer or dealer or depot or agent or service  provider all are at same level. All these are covered under the term  supplier. So any dealer whatever is the product he is dealing with can get job work done You have to check only the law otherwise applicable to the product like law relating to medicine license or permission under specific law to make medicine etc. (Reply dt. 09/11/2017)
