Place of Supply Rules FAQ
What buyers ask.
Telecom, banking and training services have special rules. Handled?
Yes. Section 12 sub-rules for telecom (12(11)), banking (12(12)), training and education (12(5)) and others are applied automatically based on service type configured at the item master.
Branch transfer between two GSTINs of the same legal entity. Treated as supply?
Yes, under Schedule I (paragraph 2). The system auto-generates a self-invoice for the branch transfer and applies IGST. The receiving GSTIN claims ITC.
Cross-border export of services. POS rule?
Section 13 of the IGST Act applies. The system handles the standard rules (POS = location of recipient) and the exceptions (POS = location of supplier for specified services).
