 1. Amendment and Commencement

 What it says: The document is a notification from the Indian government that amends the Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST) Rules, 2017.   

In detail:

It's issued by the Ministry of Finance, specifically the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs (CBIC).   

It cites Section 164 of the CGST Act, 2017, which gives the government the power to make these rules.   It specifies that these amendments are called the Central Goods and Services Tax (Second Amendment) Rules, 2019.   

The amendments come into force on the date of their publication in the official gazette, unless stated otherwise within the rules.   

2. Rule 41 - Value of Assets

 What it says: It clarifies the definition of "value of assets" for the purpose of rule 41.   

In detail: Rule 41 deals with the transfer of input tax credit in certain situations (like when a business is transferred).   

The explanation added here specifies that "value of assets" means the value of all assets of the business.  This is important because it removes any ambiguity about whether to include only assets on which input tax credit was availed.  The rule now explicitly states that it's the value of all assets.   

3. Rule 42 - Input Tax Credit Reversal

What it says: This section makes several amendments to Rule 42, which deals with how input tax credit is to be determined and reversed when goods or services are used partly for business and partly for other purposes, or partly for taxable supplies and partly for exempt supplies.   

In detail: Specific clarification for the construction sector: A key change here is the detailed way in which input tax credit is to be calculated for the construction sector, particularly for real estate projects.

It clarifies how to treat inputs and input services used for construction of apartments, especially when some are booked before the completion certificate and some are not.   

It introduces the concept of calculating input tax credit separately for each project.   

It defines how to calculate the value of "E/F" (a formula used in input tax credit calculation) in the context of real estate projects, using the concept of "carpet area" of apartments.   

 Procedural changes: It specifies that certain calculations ('C3', 'D1', and 'D2') must be done separately for different types of tax (central tax, state tax, etc.) and declared in specific forms (GSTR-3B or GST DRC-03). It changes the wording around how input tax credit is "reversed," specifying that it's to be reversed in FORM GSTR-3B or through FORM GST DRC-03.   

Final Calculation and Adjustments:

It lays down detailed procedures for the final calculation of input tax credit for real estate projects.   

This includes how to deal with situations where the finally calculated amount differs from the amount initially determined.   It also specifies how to treat input tax credit when inputs or input services are used for more than one project.   

4. Rule 43 - Input Tax Credit on Capital Goods 

What it says: This section amends Rule 43, which is similar to Rule 42 but specifically deals with the calculation and reversal of input tax credit on capital goods.   

In detail: It brings in similar provisions as in Rule 42 for the real estate sector, with specific calculations for input tax credit on capital goods used in construction.   It defines how to calculate the amount of common credit attributable towards exempted supplies.   It also specifies how to treat input tax credit on capital goods used for more than one project and what happens to the credit if the capital goods have a remaining useful life after the project is completed.   

5. Rule 88A - Order of Utilization of Input Tax Credit 

What it says: It inserts a new rule specifying the order in which input tax credit can be utilized.   

In detail: It clarifies that input tax credit on account of integrated tax (IGST) must first be used to pay IGST.  Only after the IGST credit is exhausted can it be used to pay central tax (CGST) and state tax (SGST) or Union territory tax (UTGST). Similarly, credit on account of CGST, SGST, or UTGST can only be used to pay IGST after the IGST credit is fully utilized. This rule is designed to provide clarity and a specific sequence for utilizing input tax credits.   

6. Rule 100 - Assessment in Certain Cases 

What it says: It substitutes the existing rule with a new one dealing with assessment procedures.   

In detail: It outlines the forms and procedures for assessment orders under different sections of the CGST Act (Section 62, 63, and 64).  This includes how the assessment order and summaries are to be issued and uploaded electronically.   It also provides for the process of withdrawing an assessment order under certain circumstances.   

7. Rule 142 - Notice and Order for Demand of Amounts Payable Under the Act

 What it says: It substitutes the existing rule with a new one detailing the procedures for issuing notices and orders for demand of amounts payable under the CGST Act. 

In detail: It specifies how summaries of notices and statements related to demands are to be served electronically (in FORM GST DRC-01 and FORM GST DRC-02). It outlines the procedure for informing the proper officer when a person makes a payment of tax, interest, or penalty (using FORM GST DRC-03) and how the officer should acknowledge it (in FORM GST DRC-04). It also covers the procedure when payments are made after a notice is issued but within a specified time, and how the proper officer should conclude the proceedings (in FORM GST DRC-05). It includes the form for submitting a representation or reply to a notice (FORM GST DRC-06) and how the order should be uploaded (FORM GST DRC-07).   

8-14. Amendments to Forms

What it says: These sections replace several forms (FORM GST DRC-01, FORM GST DRC-02, FORM GST DRC-07, FORM GST DRC-08, FORM GST ASMT-13, FORM GST ASMT-15, and FORM GST ASMT-16) with new versions.   

In detail: The new forms are designed to align with the changes in the rules and to provide more clarity and structure for various processes under the GST law.   

These forms are used for various purposes, including: Issuing show cause notices and statements.  Issuing assessment orders.   Providing summaries of orders.    Rectification or withdrawal of orders.   

15. Amendment to FORM GST CPD-02 

What it says: It substitutes the table and note in FORM GST CPD-02, which deals with the compounding of offenses.   

In detail: It revises the format for specifying the compounding amount for various offenses under the GST Act. It clarifies how to determine the compounding amount when an offense falls under multiple categories. It also specifies the "minor head" under which this amount is to be deposited.   

In essence, this notification makes a wide range of changes to the CGST Rules, covering aspects from input tax credit calculations (especially in the real estate sector) to assessment procedures and the forms used for various GST-related activities.
