Place of Supply-meaning
As a rule the place of supply of service is legal address
or place of residence of the supplier. However, the place
of supply for different kind of activities would differ.
In simple terms the place of supply is the place where a
supply is made and where GST may be charged and
paid.
Determining the location of supply of services may be
difficult specially in interstate services.
In some cases, the place of supply is determined by
what service is supplied rather than where the supplier
or the consumer belongs

what service is supplied, rather than where the supplier
or the customer belongs.

If there is to be a single final recipient of a supply of a computerrelated service or Internet access made by a particular supplier, and
the recipient acquires the supply under an agreement with either the
supplier or another
supplier, the supply is made in a province if the final recipient avails
itself of the service or access at a single
ordinary location in that province, and either:
the particular supplier maintains information sufficient to determine
that location; or
it is the normal business practice of the particular supplier to obtain
information sufficient to determine that location.
In any other case where there is to be a single final recipient of the
supply, the supply will be made in a province if the mailing address
of the recipient of the supply is in that province.
Physical performances
For performances the place of supply is always
where the performance takes place, irrespective
of where the customer or supplier is located.
These include services such as:
entertainment and cultural performances,
including sports events, before a live audience
services for exhibitions, conferences or meetings
support services relating to performances and
exhibitions, such as organising supplies and
services
Place of belonging
If dealer is in a particular State and the place of supply
of the dealers service is in that State, He should
charge and account for GST according to SGST rules.
Dealer belongs in a particular State if:
A business establishment ( head office or only office) is
in that State, and the dealer has no fixed establishments
(branch offices or agencies) in other States
Dealers business establishment is in a particular State
and Dealer has fixed establishments in other States, but
that particular States office is the one mainly concerned
with supplying services
Place of belonging
Dealers business establishment is not in that State but
the dealer has a fixed establishment in that State which
is the one from which the dealer supplies services
Dealer doesn't have either a business or fixed
establishment in that particular State or elsewhere, but
his business is a corporate body (eg, a limited company)
which is registered in that State
Dealer doesn't have a business or a fixed establishment
in that particular State, or anywhere else, but that State
is his usual place of residence
A business can have only one business establishment,
but can have several fixed establishments.
Place of belonging
If a dealer has a business establishment in a
particular State and establishments in other
States, he needs to look at what each
establishment does in terms of supplying
services. If, for example, his company has its
head office in the particular State, but has a
subsidiary that supplies services to local
businesses, then that company belongs in other
State for GST purposes. This is the case even if
the dealers head office belongs in the particular
State for supplies that it makes in the particular
State.
