### GST on Goods Carriage Vehicles: Vehicle Hire, Porter Trips & Structuring for 18% with Full ITC
- URL: https://pjrj.in/blog/gst-goods-carriage-vehicle-hiring-porter-18-percent-guide
- Published: 2026-07-16
- Categories: GST Updates, Tax Advisory, Compliance
- Summary: A practical GST guide for companies earning from goods carriage vehicles — through fixed-period hiring to other companies or Porter-platform trips. Covers GTA vs non-GTA classification, SAC 9966/9965/9973 rates, RCM vs forward charge, and how to structure both revenue streams at 18% with full input tax credit.
- Key Q&A:
  - Q: What GST rate applies when hiring out a goods carriage vehicle with a driver?
    A: When the vehicle is supplied with an operator and fuel is billed separately or borne by the hirer, the supply is taxed at 18% under SAC 9966 (rental of goods carriage with operator) with full ITC on forward charge. If fuel is included in the rental charge, the rate drops to 12% under the same SAC.
  - Q: How can Porter-platform transport trips attract 18% GST instead of GTA rates?
    A: If no consignment note is issued — the trip is executed as a straightforward point-to-point booking with a delivery/trip receipt but no document fixing liability for safe delivery — the company is a general transportation service provider taxed under SAC 9965 at 18% with full ITC. Issuing a consignment note triggers GTA status and limits the rate to 5% with no ITC on the transporter's own inputs.
  - Q: What is the current definition of a Goods Transport Agency under GST?
    A: As restated in Notification No. 16/2025-Central Tax (Rate) dated 16 July 2025, a GTA is any person who provides service in relation to transport of goods by road and issues a consignment note, but does not include an e-commerce operator arranging local delivery without consignment notes. The decisive test is issuance of a consignment note — without it, the service is ordinary goods transport, not GTA.
  - Q: What are the GTA rate options after the September 2025 GST Council changes?
    A: GTA services now carry a single 5% rate with no ITC on the GTA's own inputs. Under reverse charge (RCM), specified recipients self-invoice and pay 5% directly. Under forward charge (FCM), the GTA charges 5% after filing Annexure V on the GST portal between 1 January and 31 March of the preceding financial year. Either way, the GTA rate tops out at 5% — never 18%.

### GST E-Way Bill Update: Mandatory Ship-To GSTIN & Voluntary Closure Facility Deferred to 1st August 2026
- URL: https://pjrj.in/blog/gst-eway-bill-ship-to-gstin-voluntary-closure-august-2026
- Published: 2026-07-08
- Categories: GST Updates, Compliance, E-Way Bill
- Summary: GSTN has deferred mandatory Ship-To GSTIN capture in Bill-To/Ship-To e-Way Bills and the new voluntary EWB closure facility to 1 August 2026. Here is the full timeline from the May announcement through Advisories 663 and 664, and what businesses should prepare.
- Key Q&A:
  - Q: When does mandatory Ship-To GSTIN in e-Way Bills take effect?
    A: GSTN originally scheduled mandatory Ship-To GSTIN capture and voluntary EWB closure for 15 June 2026. Advisory No. 663 dated 9 June 2026 deferred both functionalities to 1 August 2026, following representations from trade and industry on system readiness.
  - Q: What should be entered if the Ship-To party is unregistered?
    A: Where the consignee is unregistered or no GSTIN is available, the value "URP" (Unregistered Person) must be entered in the Ship-To GSTIN field instead of a GSTIN.
  - Q: Can Ship-To details be changed after IRN generation for B2B transactions?
    A: For B2B and SEZ transactions, Ship details entered at IRN generation cannot be replaced later when generating the e-Way Bill. However, if the GSTIN was left out at IRN stage, it can still be added at the e-Way Bill stage, subject to validation. Export e-Way Bills follow different rules — Ship details can still be replaced at the EWB stage.
  - Q: Who can voluntarily close an e-Way Bill after delivery?
    A: Closure can be initiated by the supplier, recipient, transporter, or a driver or authorised person whose mobile number was registered for this purpose. Suppliers, recipients and transporters can close via the portal; drivers can close via a mobile-number-based option showing active EWBs linked to that number.

### Bought Shares with a Loan? Here's How Much Interest You Can Deduct Against Your Dividend Income
- URL: https://pjrj.in/blog/section-57-interest-deduction-dividend-income-loan
- Published: 2026-07-08
- Categories: Income Tax, Shares, Dividend
- Summary: If you borrowed money to buy shares and received dividends, Indian tax law allows a deduction for interest paid — but only up to 20% of your gross dividend income under Section 57(i). Anything above that lapses and cannot be carried forward.
- Key Q&A:
  - Q: Can I deduct interest paid on a loan used to buy shares against my dividend income?
    A: Yes, partially. Under Section 57(i) of the Income Tax Act, interest incurred on money borrowed to invest in shares (or mutual fund units) is deductible against dividend income — but only up to 20% of the gross dividend income included in your total income for that year.
  - Q: What is the maximum interest deduction allowed against dividend income?
    A: The maximum deduction is 20% of your gross dividend income for the financial year. Even if your actual interest cost is higher, you cannot claim more than this cap. The excess interest lapses and cannot be carried forward or set off against any other income.
  - Q: Can brokerage, demat charges, or advisory fees be deducted against dividend income?
    A: No. Under Section 57(i), only interest expense on borrowed funds qualifies. Brokerage, demat charges, advisory fees, collection charges, and subscription costs cannot be claimed against dividend income.
  - Q: Does the Section 57(i) 20% cap apply to buyback proceeds treated as dividend?
    A: For buybacks between 1 October 2024 and 31 March 2026, proceeds are classified as dividend under Section 2(22)(f). In principle, the same Section 57(i) interest deduction may apply, subject to the 20% cap — but this is a new area with limited guidance. Confirm with a Chartered Accountant before claiming. From 1 April 2026, buyback proceeds are taxed as capital gains and Section 57(i) no longer applies.

### Is STT Paid on Sale of Shares Eligible for Deduction? Here's the Complete Answer
- URL: https://pjrj.in/blog/stt-deduction-sale-of-shares-capital-gains-business-income
- Published: 2026-07-07
- Categories: Income Tax, Capital Gains, Shares
- Summary: Securities Transaction Tax (STT) on share sales is not deductible if income is taxed as capital gains under Section 48 — but traders reporting business income can claim it under Section 36(1)(xv). The answer depends on whether you are an investor or a trader.
- Key Q&A:
  - Q: Can STT be deducted when share profits are taxed as capital gains?
    A: No. The seventh proviso to Section 48 expressly disallows any deduction for STT paid while computing income chargeable under the head Capital Gains. STT cannot be added to cost of acquisition or deducted as a selling expense.
  - Q: Can share traders deduct STT on their transactions?
    A: Yes. Under Section 36(1)(xv), STT paid on taxable securities transactions is deductible as a business expense if the transactions are entered into in the course of business and the income has been included while computing business income.
  - Q: What is the difference between investor and trader treatment for STT?
    A: Investors holding shares as capital assets report STCG or LTCG and cannot deduct STT. Traders treating shares as stock-in-trade report business income and can deduct STT along with brokerage, advisory fees, and other business expenses.
  - Q: Can brokerage be deducted if shares are taxed as capital gains?
    A: Yes. Brokerage and other expenses incurred wholly and exclusively for the transfer of a capital asset can be deducted under Section 48 while computing capital gains — unlike STT, which is specifically barred by the seventh proviso.

### Section 112(1)(a) Explained: What It Means for Your Section 54 Capital Gains Exemption
- URL: https://pjrj.in/blog/section-112-1a-capital-gains-section-54-exemption
- Published: 2026-07-05
- Categories: Income Tax, Capital Gains, Property
- Summary: The Finance (No. 2) Act, 2024 changed LTCG on land and buildings to 12.5% without indexation. The second proviso to Section 112(1)(a) lets resident individuals and HUFs pay the lower of old or new tax — but it does not reduce how much you must reinvest under Section 54.
- Key Q&A:
  - Q: What is the second proviso to Section 112(1)(a)?
    A: It is a relief for resident individuals and HUFs selling land or a building acquired before 23 July 2024. Tax is computed both at 12.5% without indexation and at 20% with indexation; the lower amount is payable. The excess tax under the higher computation is ignored.
  - Q: Does Section 112(1)(a) reduce the amount I must invest under Section 54?
    A: No. The second proviso is a tax-computation mechanism only. To claim full Section 54 exemption, you must reinvest against the full capital gain under current law — the post-amendment, non-indexed computation — not the smaller indexed figure used only for comparing tax.
  - Q: Who qualifies for dual computation under Section 112(1)(a)?
    A: Resident individuals and HUFs selling land or building (not leasehold rights or other assets) acquired before 23 July 2024. It does not apply to companies, firms, AOPs, BOIs, or non-residents.
  - Q: When did LTCG rules on immovable property change?
    A: The Finance (No. 2) Act, 2024 applies to transfers on or after 23 July 2024. LTCG on land and buildings is taxed at 12.5% without indexation, replacing the earlier flat 20% with indexation.

- Key Q&A:
  - Q: What is TDS on rent by Individual or HUF under Section 194-IB?
    A: Individuals and HUFs paying rent above Rs. 50,000 per month must deduct TDS at 2% under Section 393(1) [Table Sl. No. 2(i)] of the Income-tax Act, 2025 (erstwhile Section 194-IB). No TAN is required — use PAN, file Form 26QC, and issue Form 16C.
  - Q: Who must deduct TDS on rent under Section 194-IB?
    A: Every Individual and HUF — including salaried persons not engaged in business or profession — must deduct TDS if rent paid or payable exceeds Rs. 50,000 per month or part of the month, provided their turnover or gross receipts in the immediately preceding financial year did not exceed Rs. 1 crore (business) or Rs. 50 lakhs (profession). Under the Income-tax Act, 2025, this corresponds to Section 393(1) [Table Sl. No. 2(i)].
  - Q: Is TAN required for TDS on rent under Section 194-IB?
    A: No. There is no requirement to obtain a Tax Deduction or Collection Account Number (TAN). The deductor can use his PAN in place of TAN for deducting and depositing tax under this provision.
  - Q: Which form is used to deposit TDS and file the statement for rent under Section 194-IB?
    A: Tax deducted must be deposited through Form 26QC (challan-cum-statement) within 30 days from the last day of the month in which tax was deducted. The deductor must issue Form 16C as the TDS certificate within 15 days from the due date of furnishing the statement.

### Big GST Change from July 2026: ITC Hard Locking in GSTR-3B Explained

- Published: 2026-07-01
- Categories: GST Updates, Compliance, Input Tax Credit
- Summary: From July 2026, Input Tax Credit in GSTR-3B Table 4 is expected to be system-generated from GSTR-2B and IMS actions, with limited manual editing. Learn what changes, how businesses are affected, and how to prepare.
- Key Q&A:
  - Q: When does ITC hard locking in GSTR-3B start?
    A: ITC hard locking in GSTR-3B Table 4 is expected from July 2026. Eligible input tax credit will be largely system-generated from GSTR-2B and Invoice Management System (IMS) actions, with limited manual editing.
  - Q: What is ITC hard locking in GSTR-3B?
    A: ITC hard locking means taxpayers cannot freely edit input tax credit in GSTR-3B Table 4. The GST portal auto-populates eligible ITC based on supplier-reported invoices in GSTR-2B and IMS accept/reject actions.
  - Q: How should businesses prepare for GSTR-3B ITC hard locking?
    A: Reconcile purchase registers with GSTR-2B every month, follow up with vendors on missing or mismatched invoices, document exceptions, and file GSTR-3B only after reconciliation — not at year-end.

    A: GSTR-2B reconciliation is the process of matching your purchase register with the auto-drafted GSTR-2B statement on the GST portal to verify eligible input tax credit before filing GSTR-3B.
  - Q: Why should GSTR-2B be reconciled before filing GSTR-3B?
    A: Reconciling before GSTR-3B prevents excess ITC claims, reduces GST notice risk, and ensures only supplier-reported eligible credits are claimed — especially important before ITC hard-locking from July 2026.
  - Q: How often should businesses reconcile GSTR-2B?
