This notification outlines a special procedure for electronic commerce operators (ECOs) regarding the supply of goods through their platforms by persons exempt from GST registration under specific conditions. It clarifies the responsibilities of ECOs in relation to these unregistered suppliers.
Key Changes
ECOs can only allow unregistered persons (exempted from registration under notification 34/2023-State Tax, dated 20th Oct, 2023) to supply goods through their platform if the unregistered person has been allotted an enrolment number on the common portal.
ECOs are prohibited from allowing inter-state supplies of goods by these unregistered persons through their platforms.
ECOs are not required to collect tax at source (TCS) under section 52(1) of the Delhi Goods and Services Tax (DGST) Act, 2017 for supplies made by these unregistered persons through their platforms.
ECOs must furnish details of supplies made by these unregistered persons through their platforms in FORM GSTR-8 electronically on the common portal.
In cases involving multiple ECOs in a single supply, the ECO responsible for releasing the final payment to the unregistered person is considered the 'electronic commerce operator' for compliance purposes.
This notification is effective from October 1, 2023.
