• GST query

Hi- Good day. I pay 18% IGST on export of Service.

and I pay 18% IGST on Service Import as RCM.


In above both cases do I need to Pay CESS ? I see a field called 'CESS' added few months ago in GST portal beside IGST amount in GSTR3B.

Please help.

Thanks

Sorry for my previous reply.

If your product is covered under notified category, then you will have to pay cess on GST.

It is not applicable to all products.

Hi,

No GST cess on export of services.

You don't need to pay cess on services.

Hi,

- Cess is imposed on SIN goods and not on services.

- GST returns are comprehensive covering all aspects. You are not supposed to pay Cess as you are engaged in services.

As per my research I don't think there is any cess on export of service, there is cess on export of goods but from the list I have seen there is no cess on export of service and the you can even claim refund of such cess even if it is there.

Hope you find the information helpful if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement.

Thank you

Hi,

GST Cess is charged only on the supply of notified/selected goods and services.

Please note that it is applied on goods as well as on services.

Hi,

Cess is not applicable for services. It is applicable for certain goods.

You need not to worry about cess.

Cess is not applicable for services. It is only applicable on certain notified category products.

Hope that clarifies.
