10. IMPLICATIONS
Let us consider an example where we have 3 units
A B
C
FACTORY WHOLESALER
RETAILER
CONDITION : 1. A, B, C follows normal taxation scheme.
2. A, C = normal tax, B follows composition scheme.
3. A, B = normal tax, C follows composition scheme.
12. CONCLUSION FOR CONDITION 1
• Total tax paid = 200(A) + 20(B) + 22(C)
= Rs. 242
• Purchase price doesn’t includes tax already paid by supplier of
raw material means no double taxation.
Purchase price = Invoice price – GST paid
• ITC is availed by buyer when tax is already paid by supplier.

14. CONCLUSION FOR CONDITION 2
• Total tax paid = 200(A) + 13(B) + 290(C)
= Rs. 503
• Purchase price includes tax already paid by supplier of raw material
means there is double taxation.
Purchase price = Total Invoice price of supplier
• ITC is not availed by buyer when tax is already paid by supplier.
• C has to purchase raw materials from B at Total Invoice value i.e.,
Rs. 1320
There is loss to B’s customer,
hence C doesn’t wants to trade with B, rather prefer dealing with
one by which ITC can be availed and purchase price excludes taxes
16. CONCLUSION FOR CONDITION 3
• Total tax paid = 200(A) + 20(B) + 15(C)
= Rs. 235
• If we have B2C business, then composition scheme is beneficial
for us
• Less tax paid means more profit.
• No other business gets affected, fair prices offered to
customers.
17. CONCLUSION
1. UNDER NORMAL SCHEME PURCHASE PRICE DOESN’T INCLUDES GST PAID BY
SUPPLIER, BUT UNDER COMPOSITION SCHEME PP INCLUDES TAX ALREADY
PAID.
2. NO ITC IS GIVEN UNDER COMPOSITION SCHEME.
3. NO COLLECTION OF TAX FROM CUSTOMERS IF ORGANIZATION FOLLOWS
SCHEME.
4. NO FRESH INTIMATION EVERY YEAR.
5. SCHEME REDUCES OPERATIONAL COST FOR MAINTAINING VAST RECORDS.
6. IN SHORT THIS SCHEME IS GOOD FOR B2C BUSINESS ( CASE 3).
