When There is Movement of Goods

1) Where the supply involves a movement of goods, the place of supply shall be determined by the location of the goods at the time of final delivery.

Example 1- Intra-state sales

Mr. A of Nagpur, Maharashtra sells 25coolers to Mr. B of Pune, Maharashtra

The place of supply is Pune in Maharashtra. Since it is the same state CGST & SGST will be charged.

Example 2-Inter-State sales

Mr. A of Nagpur, Maharashtra sells 25coolers to Mr. B of Kolkata, West Bengal.

The place of supply is Kolkata, West Bengal. Since it is a different state IGST will be charged.

2) Where the supply involves a movement of goods, on the direction of a third party, whether as an agent or otherwise, the place of supply shall be the principle place of business of such third party, irrespective of the place of delivery of goods.

 Example 3- Deliver to a 3rd party as per instructions of Buyer

A in Jaipur buys goods from Mr. B in Mumbai (Maharashtra). The buyer requests the seller to send the goods to Nagpur (Maharashtra)

In this case, it will be assumed that the buyer in Jaipur has received the goods & IGST will be charged.

place of supply: Jaipur(Rajasthan)

 Example 4 – E-commerce sale         

Mr. Arya of Pune, Maharashtra orders a mobile from Amazon to be delivered to his Sister in Raipur (CG) as a gift. M/s XYZ (online seller registered in Gujarat) processes the order and sends the mobile accordingly and Mr. Arya is billed by Amazon.  

Similar to example 3, it will be assumed that the buyer in Pune has received the goods & IGST will be charged.

place of supply: Pune, Maharashtra

 Example 5- Receiver takes the goods ex-factory
