Govt civil works estimate
4 years ago
I use to saw an estimate for a road construction. Estimate cost is one core. Estimate provides GST 12% Rs. 1043426 labour welfare fund 100000 . Accordingly govt has to pay this cost. Is it right? Or Contractor who won the tender should bear this cost. Which is correct. All the estimate are prepared like this.

A.The answer to this is two fold
1. If it is expressly written in the contract as to who has to pay what, then, that must be followed.
2. If we follow the GST rules and norms, then,
Accordingly it says that a contractor is liable to pay the amount of GST [12%] as has been mentioned by you.
He can however get this amount back by way of "Input Tax Credit" which is a facility provided under this Law.
Thanks

A.AS per GST act, You (Contractor) has to pay, GST amount (12%). There is possibility of getting this Tax back as per "Input Tax Credit". Few cases, this facility was given by Court ( case: In re Nagaur Mukandgarh Highways Pvt. Ltd. (GST AAR Rajasthan) ), But still as per latest information, ITC you may not claim.
