• GST to foreign companies

My company is based in the UK and I am appointing an environmental consultant to undertake work within India on behalf of my client. The Indian consultancy will invoice me and I will then invoice my client for their services (along with my additional costs).

Am I required to pay GST on the fee that the Indian consultancy charges me?

We need more details and discuss the same in detail.

 

I would request you to book a phone consultation to discuss the same with all details as the nature of service, existence of permanent establishment, type of agent etc.

 

Hope you find the information helpful if you do please rate it 5 and provide your valuable feedback for my improvement. You can even book phone consultation for further personal assistance.

Thank you.

- Charging of GST depends on the place of supply of services. What is the location of your client?

Hi

 

We need to discuss the nature of services provided by the Indian consultant to decide whether GST shall have to be charged or not.

If the place of supply according to the rules is in India, GST shall have to be charged. However if the place of supply is determined to be outside India, the Indian consultant may export services under LUT without payment of GST.

We may discuss the issues further in detail.
