In cases of Mobile Recharges, the most ideal concept that is followed is the vendor gets a bulk top up done with a commission.
For eg.
Company to Distributor transaction : Company billing of Rs. 96 and transfer recharge of 100. Company will collect GST @18% on Rs. 96 (i.e. Rs.17.28) Hence Distributor will pay 17.28 GST.
Now Distributor to Retailer transaction : Distributor billing of Rs. 97 and transfer recharge of 100. Distributor will collect GST @18% on Rs. 97 (i.e. Rs. 17.46) and will take credit of earlier paid taxes Rs. 17.28. In other way Distributor will pay only 0.18 GST on his commission of Rs. 1 (97–96).
Now Retailer to Customer transaction : Retailer will charge 118 to Customer for recharge of Rs. 100. And will pay GST of Rs. 0.54 on his commission of Rs. 3 (100–97) after taking credit of earlier paid taxes of Rs. 17.46.
