Analysis
Example: a packaging maker sells Rs 1 crore a year to factories. As a regular supplier he charges 18 percent and the factories claim it back. As a composition supplier, the factory gets no credit, so the effective cost to them rises. Many such buyers will shift orders. Composition fits best when most customers are consumers.
