 OTHER SIGINFICANT TOPICS
 Taxability in case of Composite Supply / Mixed Supply :

 Sale of Tool-Kit/Jack Assembly:

• Would be treated as a Composite supply (Tax rate for Vehicle to apply)

 Sale of Accessories by Dealer:

• Dealer should issue separate invoice, else it would be a mixed supply
attracting GST applicable to vehicle

 GST Payments on Advance consideration (Deposits not treated as

advance):
 Tax to be paid as per vehicles model to be billed
 Dealers release advance payment : Modelwise /Billing location wise
 ITC credit allowed only after vehicle billed and invoice issued.
 GST payable on Interest charged for Delayed payment of consideration :
 Tax to be paid linking with invoice tax rate. 57
 OTHER SIGINFICANT TOPICS

 Sales Returns:
