12. Taxability of Import of services
Section 7(1)(b) of CGST Act provides that supply includes import of services, for a
consideration whether or not in the course or furtherance of business, and
Further, Schedule I Point 4 of the CGST Act provides that Import of services by a taxable
person from a related person or from any of his other establishments outside India, in the
course or furtherance of business will be treated as supply even if made without
consideration.
Issue
Import of services is anyway covered in section 7(1)(b) and establishments outside India is
a distinct person which will apply to import of services also. Dual coverage of import of
services might lead to interpretational issues.
Suggestion
It is suggested that entry 4 of Schedule I of CGST Act be deleted.
