ACCOUNTING TREATMENT IN CASE OF ADVANCE RECEIPT FOR SERVICES FROM SERVICE RECEIVER
Section 31(3)(d) of the CGST Act provides that on receipt of advance payment with respect to any supply
of goods or services or both, a registered person shall issue a receipt voucher or any other document,
containing such particulars as prescribed in Rule 50 of the CGST Rules, evidencing receipt of such
payment. 1st proviso to Rule 50 further states that where at the time of receipt of advance-
(i) the rate of tax is not determinable, the tax shall be paid at the rate of 18%;
(ii) the nature of supply is not determinable, the same shall be treated as inter-State supply.
In case of receipt of advance payment against supply of goods and/or services, date of receipt of advance
payment being the earlier event, is the time of supply as per the provisions of section 12(2)(b) and
13(2)(a) and (b) of the CGST Act. However, by virtue of N. No. 66/2017-Central Tax dated 15th November,
2017, receipt of advance against supply of goods is no longer a determining factor to ascertain time of
supply. Effective from 15th November, 2017, only the date of issue of invoice or the last date when an
invoice is required to be issued under section 31(1) of the CGST Act shall determine the time of supply in
case of supply of goods. This notification has superseded N. No. 40/2017-Central Tax dated 13th October,
2017, by which only a registered person with aggregate turnover upto 1.50 crores is entitled to this
benefit.
However, on receipt of advance against supply of services, date of receipt of advance, being earliest
event, shall continue to be time of supply as per the provisions of section 13(2)(a) and (b).
