Question

What rate of GST does the notification fix for Heading 9988 — Manufacturing services on physical inputs (goods) owned by others?

Notification No. 11/2017-Central Tax (Rate), 28 June 2017 fixes central tax on the intra-State supply of these services at 2.5 per cent. and 9 per cent. against serial 26 of its table — 2 rate entries across 1 row. That is the rate as notified on 28 June 2017; service rates have been amended since, so check the notification in force before you rely on it. Column (2) of the notification’s table is “only indicative” of the classification, so treat the heading as the notification’s grouping and not as an authority on the service’s code.

What this page rests on

  • Levy — s.9(1), Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017: tax is levied on all intra-State supplies of goods or services at such rates, not exceeding twenty per cent., as may be notified by the Government. Quoted from our held text at cgst/cgst-act-2017.txt:418, which is what the notification above exercises.
  • Exemption — s.11(1), CGST Act, 2017: on the Council’s recommendation the Government may exempt, by notification, services of any specified description. Held text at cgst/cgst-act-2017.txt:451.
  • Classification — “Chapter”, “Section” and “Heading” carry the meanings they have in the annexed scheme of classification of services the rate notification refers to. Notification No. 12/2017-Central Tax (Rate), explanation 3(ii): "Chapter, Section, Heading, Group, or Service Code mentioned in Column (2) of the Table are only indicative." Each rate is the one notified on 28 June 2017 in the notification named on that row, not a statement of the rate in force today.
  • Each row on this page is quoted from a held copy of the notification and keeps its line range. Nothing here is a substitute for the notification in force on the date of your supply.
