14 February 2018 dear Experts,
could you please advice how will the GST return be filed by international law firm.
As services provided by law firms are covered under reverse charge so how will be the input tax credit be utilised by them as the output tax liability will fall on recipient of service?

14 February 2018 Also the Service are Exempted under GST for Provider hand and No need registration under GST...
If the firm is registered under GST then they must filed returns periodically...

The Firm serviced to registered dealer then show it in B2B section and Select the option of "Reverse Charge".. The Service provider to any Unregistered dealer then You can show it under exempted column...

14 February 2018 International law firm is not registered under GST and providing services from outside India. Not paid any input GST hence no ITC can be claimed.
