The “Place of Supply” is a significant upgrade to our GST software. the “place of supply” is a crucial concept under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime. It determines which state’s GST is applicable to a particular transaction. The place of supply rules are designed to ensure that the tax revenue goes to the state where the consumption or utilization of goods or services occurs.

GST is a destination-based tax, meaning that the goods/services are taxed at the point of consumption rather than the point of origin. Therefore, the authority to collect GST will lie with the state in which they are consumed.

As a result, the place of supply is essential under GST because it is the focal point of all of its requirements. According to the GST, the location of the supplier of the products determines whether the transaction qualifies as intrastate or interstate and, as a result, the amount of SGST, CGST, and IGST that will be levied.
