  1. Facts

    Yes. Composition dealers pay tax under reverse charge at normal rates on notified purchases, without ITC. This is paid through CMP-08 and reported in GSTR-4.

  2. Provisions and law

    • Sec 10, CGST Act 2017Composition levy: turnover limits, rates, conditions and no ITC
    • Rule 62, CGST Rules 2017Quarterly CMP-08 statement and annual GSTR-4 return for composition taxpayers
  3. Analysis

    Composition tax on turnover does not cover reverse charge. Example: a composition shop pays a goods transport agency ₹50,000 for freight where reverse charge applies; it pays tax at the applicable rate in CMP-08 and reports it in GSTR-4 Table 4B or 4C. There is no credit for this tax.

  4. Conclusion

    1. List purchases on which reverse charge applies.
    2. Pay the tax in that quarter's CMP-08.
    3. Report them in GSTR-4 Table 4.
    4. Keep the documents.
