Meena ek web designer hai. Client ne ₹40,000 advance bheja aur kaha 'kaam do mahine mein shuru karna'. Meena ne socha ki invoice kaam ke baad banayegi, tab GST bharegi. Lekin GST law ke mutabik services mein advance par bhi GST ban sakta hai. Wahin, ek goods supplier ke liye advance par GST aam taur par nahi lagta. Ye farak aksar chhote business wale miss kar dete hain. Is guide mein hum advance par GST ke rules, receipt voucher aur return mein dikhane ka tareeka simple example se samjhate hain.
Quick Summary
- Goods supplier ko advance milne par GST ka tax abhi nahi lagta; tax invoice ya supply ke time par lagta hai (Notification 66/2017)
- Services mein advance milne par GST ban sakta hai: invoice ya payment, jo pehle ho, wahi time of supply
- Advance milne par receipt voucher banana padta hai; supply na ho to refund voucher
- GSTR-1 ki Table 11 mein advance dikhate hain aur jab invoice bane to adjust karte hain
- Advance par GST ki ganana aam taur par tax-inclusive amount maan kar rate/(100+rate) ke hisaab se hoti hai
Time Of Supply Ka Matlab
GST kab dena hai, ye 'time of supply' tay karta hai. Goods ke liye ye time aam taur par invoice ki tareekh, ya wo tareekh jab tak invoice dena zaroori tha (maal ki delivery ke hisaab se), ya payment milne ki tareekh, in mein se jo pehle ho. Lekin Notification 66/2017 ke baad goods supplier ke liye advance milne par GST ka tax nahi lagta.
Goods Aur Services Ka Farak
| Cheez | Goods | Services |
|---|---|---|
| Advance milne par GST | Aam taur par nahi lagta | Lagta hai (jo pehle ho: invoice ya payment ki tareekh) |
| Receipt voucher | Banana zaroori nahi (aam taur par) | Advance milte hi banana zaroori |
| GSTR-1 mein | Advance Table 11 mein nahi dikhana | Table 11 mein dikhana |
| Supply na hui to | Refund ka sawal nahi uthta (kyunki tax diya hi nahi) | Refund voucher banakar GST wapas lena |
Dhyan rakhein ki 'goods' aur 'services' ke beech mein kuch cases (jaise works contract, construction ya mixed supply) grey area mein aate hain. Aisi situation mein apne CA se rate aur time of supply confirm kar lein.
Worked Example: Meena Ka Advance
| Detail | Amount |
|---|---|
| Total project | ₹1,00,000 (taxable value) |
| GST rate | 18% |
| Advance mila (October 2026) | ₹40,000 |
| GST on advance (tax-inclusive maan kar) | 40,000 × 18 / 118 = ₹6,102 (lagbhag) |
| Taxable value in receipt voucher | ₹33,898 |
Meena ko October ke GSTR-1 mein ₹40,000 ko Table 11 mein dikhana hoga, aur GSTR-3B mein ₹6,102 ka GST bharna hoga. Jab baad mein invoice banegi, to usme ₹40,000 ka adjustment dikhayi jayega, aur GST ki ganana baaki ke ₹60,000 par hogi. Isse advance par diya gaya GST invoice ke tax se adjust ho jata hai.
Receipt Voucher Kaise Banayein
- Supplier ka naam, address, GSTIN aur voucher ka serial number
- Voucher ki tareekh aur recipient ka naam, address aur GSTIN (registered ho to)
- Advance ki rakam aur kis service ke liye hai uska description
- Rate aur GST (CGST/SGST ya IGST) ki alag-alag rakam
- Place of supply aur supplier ka signature
Agar Supply Hi Nahi Hui To
Maan lijiye client ne project cancel kar diya aur advance wapas maang liya. Aise me supplier ko refund voucher banana hota hai, jisme advance ka GST wapas hota hai, aur GSTR-1 ke amendment table mein ye adjust hota hai. Is vajah se advance ke records ka sahi rehna zaroori hai.
Kin Cases Mein Chhoot Milti Hai
- Composition scheme wale taxpayer advance par alag se GST nahi dete (wo turnover par fixed rate dete hain).
- Un chhote suppliers ko jinka turnover GST limit ke andar hai aur jo registered nahi hain, advance par GST ka sawal nahi uthta.
- Reverse charge (RCM) ke cases mein advance par rules alag hain, isliye RCM guide dekhein.
Chhote Business Ke Liye Practical Tips
- Advance lete hi receipt voucher banayein, bahut se log ise bhool jaate hain aur baad mein GSTR-1 mein advance miss ho jaata hai.
- Accounting software mein advance ko alag se 'customer advance' ki tarah record karein.
- Invoice banate waqt advance ka adjustment clearly dikhayein.
- Year-end par advance ka ledger check karein aur jis advance ka supply nahi hua, uska refund voucher dekhein.
Common Mistakes
- Service ke advance par receipt voucher na banana aur GST sirf final invoice par dena.
- Goods supplier ka advance par GST bhar dena (jabki zaroori nahi tha) aur baad mein adjust na kar paana.
- Advance par GST ko tax alag se jod kar ganana karna, jabki aam taur par rakam tax-inclusive maani jaati hai.
- Table 11 mein advance dikhana bhool jana.
- Cancelled order ka advance wapas karne par refund voucher na banana.
- Mixed ya works contract jaise supply mein bina CA ki salah ke time of supply tay karna.
