Works Contact — The Applicant is an EPC contractor and enters into contract with various developers who desire to set up and operate solar photovoltaic plants for supply of power generated. The contracts are for supply of goods as well as services. The applicant has sought advance ruling in respect of the following questions: a) Whether supply of turnkey Engineering, Procurement & Construction ('EPC') Contract for construction of solar power plant wherein both goods and services are supplied can be construed to be a Composite Supply in terms of Section 2(30) of CGST Act, 2017. b) If Yes, Whether the Principal Supply in such case can be said to be 'Solar Power Generating System' which is taxable at 5% GST. c) Whether benefit of concessional rate of 5% of solar power generation system and parts thereof would also be available to sub-contractors. Authority for Advance Rulings, Karnataka held that:—1. Question No. 1 - The major component (PV Module) said to have been constituting 70% of the whole project can not be construed to be supplied by the applicant consequent upon High Sea Sale of the said product and hence it cannot be construed to be a principal supply of the project and thereby cannot be a composite supply. 2. Question No. 2 - The question does not remain relevant on account of answer to question number 1. 3. Question No. 3 - The supply made by sub-contractor need to be viewed as an individual supply and thereby the appropriate rate of GST has to be applied depending on the specific nature of supply.[2018] 51 TUD 177 (AAR-KARN)
