The court said that the Appellate Authority for Advance Ruling&#8217;s decision to impose GST on mango pulp at 18% was incorrect.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Earlier, exporters and businessmen faced problems due to confusion in rates on different forms of mango, like sliced, dried mangoes or mango pulp.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;The court has rightly given weightage to the circular pursuant to the GST council meeting, where it was clarified that mango pulp is liable to GST at 12%,&#8221; said Harpreet Singh, indirect tax partner at KPMG in India.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The court also directed the revenue authorities not to take any &#8220;coercive action&#8221; for recovering 18% GST on mango pulp.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Going ahead, fresh mangoes sold as a fruit will attract no GST. While sliced and dried mangoes will face 5% GST. &#8220;The interesting thing to note is that, under GST laws, a particular product in different forms can attract different GST rates. Similarly, there are varied rates for meat, i.e., raw meat, canned meat, etc. Another example could be milk; fresh milk attracts GST at nil rates, UHT (ultra-heat treatment) milk at 5%, and condensed or flavoured milk is chargeable at higher rates,&#8221; said Singh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Earlier too, several AARs have ruled on GST applicable on food items. So, parata is not similar to paratha, but naan and a samosa eaten over the counter and on a chair outside the shop probably taste different as they should be taxed differently. Many other AARs include whether a cookie wrapped in chocolate is a cookie or a chocolate wrapped around a wafer biscuit is a biscuit, ET reported earlier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Andhra Pradesh High Court has ruled that mango pulp be taxed at 12% under GST as per<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2382,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[186,187],"class_list":["post-2381","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-gst","tag-mango"],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
