    Circular No.

    3/1/2018-IGST

    F. No. CBEC/20/16/03/2017- GST


    Government of India
    Ministry of Finance
    Department of Revenue
    Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs
    GST Policy Wing

    New Delhi, Dated the 25th May, 2018


    To,

    The Principal Chief Commissioners/ Chief Commissioners/ Principal Commissioners/


    Commissioners of Central Tax (All)/ The Principal Directors General/ Directors General (All)

    Madam/Sir,

    Subject: Applicability of Integrated Goods and Services Tax (integrated tax) on goods
    supplied while being deposited in a customs bonded warehouse-reg.

    Attention is invited to Circular No. 46/2017-Customs dated 24.11.2017 whereby the


    applicability of integrated tax on goods transferred/sold while being deposited in a warehouse
    (hereinafter referred to as the “warehoused goods”) was clarified.

    2. Various references had been received by the Board on the captioned issue which has
    now been re-examined by the Board.

    3. It is seen that the “transfer/sale of goods while being deposited in a customs bonded
    warehouse” is a common trade practice whereby the importer files an into-bond bill of entry
    and stores the goods in a customs bonded warehouse and thereafter, supplies such goods to
    another person who then files an ex-bond bill of entry for clearing the said goods from the
    customs bonded warehouse for home consumption.

    4. It may be noted that as per sub-section (2) of section 7 of the Integrated Goods and
    Services Tax Act, 2017 (hereinafter referred to as the “IGST Act”), the supply of goods
    imported into the territory of India, till they cross the customs frontiers of India, is treated as
    a supply of goods in the course of inter-State trade or commerce. Further, the proviso to sub-
    section (1) of section 5 of the IGST Act provides that the integrated tax on goods imported
    into India would be levied and collected in accordance with the provisions of section 3 of the
    Customs Tariff Act, 1975 (hereinafter referred to as the “CTA”). Thus, in case of supply of
    the warehoused goods, the point of levy would be the point at which the duty is collected
    under section 12 of the Customs Act, 1962 (hereinafter referred to as the “Customs Act”)
    which is at the time of clearance of such goods under section 68 of the Customs Act.

    5. It may also be noted that sub-section (8A) has been inserted in section 3 of the CTA
    vide section 102 of the Finance Act, 2018,with effect from 31st March, 2018,so as to provide
    that the valuation for the purpose of levy of integrated tax on warehoused imported goods at
    the time of clearance for home consumption would be either the transaction value or the
    value as per sub-section (8) of section 3 of the CTA (i.e. valuation done at the time of filing
    the into-bond bill of entry), whichever is higher.

    6. It is therefore, clarified that integrated tax shall be levied and collected at the time of
    final clearance of the warehoused goods for home consumption i.e., at the time of filing the
    ex-bond bill of entry and the value addition accruing at each stage of supply shall form part
    of the value on which the integrated tax would be payable at the time of clearance of the
    warehoused goods for home consumption. In other words, the supply of goods before their
    clearance from the warehouse would not be subject to the levy of integrated tax and the same
    would be levied and collected only when the warehoused goods are cleared for home
    consumption from the customs bonded warehouse.

    7. This Circular would be applicable for supply of warehoused goods, while being
    deposited in a customs bonded warehouse, on or after the 1stof April, 2018.

    8. It is requested that suitable trade notices may be issued to publicize the contents of
    this Circular.

    9. Difficulty, if any, in implementation of the above instructions may please be brought


    to the notice of the Board. Hindi version would follow.

    (Upender Gupta)
    Commissioner (GST)
