In current environment there is a big ambiguity regarding when we are need to issue tax invoice for the taxable supply received from unregistered supplier specified in u/s 9(3) and 9 (4) of CGST Act and at what point of timing we are need to issue payment voucher. There are two type of reverse charge scenarios provided in law. First is dependent on the nature of supply and/or nature of supplier. This scenario is covered by section 9 (3) of the CGST/ SGST (UTGST) Act and section 5 (3) of the IGST Act. Second scenario is covered by section 9 (4) of the CGST/SGST (UTGST) Act and section 5 (4) of the IGST Act where taxable supplies by any unregistered person to a registered person is covered. Today we are providing bird eye view solution of this problem. For this purpose we will discuss our topic in to two main parts. Which are as under-
