Charge Under GST is a source of confusion for business owners; however, the rule is not complicated once you have an understanding of how it applies to real-life situations. Many Indian companies undergo more than one branch, unit or registration under the same PAN. Each unit may use common resources, teams or systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When one unit is providing service and spending to another unit, the value is expected to be charged between them, under the GST law. This allows it to avoid revenue leakage and keeps filings correct. This introduction provides a base from which to get a better understanding of when it is mandatory to cross charge under GST, and from where to do it with clarity and confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"When_Cross_Charge_Becomes_Necessary\"><\/span>When Cross Charge Becomes Necessary?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Inter-Branch transactions cause tax liability, when one registered unit assists another unit to perform its functions. This can be through manpower, administrative or shared services. The rule helps in ensuring that input tax credit flows in the correct direction between both the units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"btn-div\">\n\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/me9.in\/MBB\" class=\"marg-btn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Get Cloud-Based GST Billing Software<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_triggers\"><\/span>Common triggers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Companies are often subject to Cross Charge Under GST requirements, while in the following situations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Shared employees are those employees, who work for more than one registration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>One registration is used for a service that is used by another unit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Head office organises marketing or compliance activities for branches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Centralised purchase for teams buy items or services for various units.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Any internal service has a measurable worth that facilitates business operations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Services_Provided_by_a_Head_Office\"><\/span>Services Provided by a Head Office<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Many Indian companies such as MargBooks have a central head office who takes care of the human resource, training, technology or legal work to their branches. When salaries are being paid by the head office, agency charges or professional fees and these service another state registration, the Cross Charge Under GST duty must be charged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Key_examples\"><\/span>Key examples<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>An apparel chain has its head office that handles payroll for all the branches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A legal team of a pharmaceutical company helps one of the state unit during inspection.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The central IT department of a logistics company is involved in setting up access to a new warehouse.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The head office sends a tax invoice to the concerned branch.

Employees who work across state registrations are indirect in their services to those units.

Most cross charge situations occur in the working life.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This includes centralised teams, shared employees and costs for expenses paid on behalf of another unit.
