PUBLISHED BY AUTHORITY

In exercise of the powers conferred under Section 151 read with Section 168 of the Goa Goods and

Services Tax Act, 2017 (Goa Act 4 of 2017), (hereinafter referred as the “GST Act” or “GST Law” or

“Act”) for the purpose of uniformity in the implementation of the Act, I, the undersigned, Commissioner of

State Tax, Goa do hereby direct that the following specific information about the events, fashion shows,

celebrity/celebrities events, musical nights, seminars, exhibitions, circus, theatrical performances including

drama or dance, award functions, pageants, concerts, musical performances, recognized sports events,

planetarium events, trade fairs, mela, artistic & theatrical performances and other such activities/similar

events by whatever name called scheduled within the jurisdiction of State of Goa, involving/likely to

involve supply of goods and/or services shall be furnished in the manner specified hereinunder.

1) In terms of Section 22 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (Central Act No. 12 of

2017) and the Goa Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017 (Goa Act No. 4 of 2017) (hereinafter referred as the

“GST Act” or “GST Law” or “Act”), every taxable person is liable to obtain registration under GST in the

State of Goa if the aggregate turnover exceeds ₹ 40,00,000/- in a financial year in the case of suppliers

exclusively engaged in the supply of goods and ₹ 20,00,000/- in a financial year in the case of suppliers

engaged in the supply of services or both goods and services, subject to applicable conditions;

2) Where the person is already registered under GST in Goa as a registered taxable person and is

participating in any such event/sale/exhibition at a place other than the registered places of business (either

Principal place of business or any of the additional places of business), the registered taxable person is

required to add that premises/place from where the supply takes place as new additional place of business

in the existing GST registration in accordance with the provisions of Section 28 of the GST Act and GST

Rules in force;

3) Further, as per the provisions of Section 2(20) read with Section 24 of the GST Law, any person

who undertakes taxable supplies in a State or Union Territory where such person has no fixed place of

business, is required to obtain mandatory registration as a Casual Taxable Person (CTP) under GST,

irrespective of the turnover threshold;

4) Therefore, under GST law, a Casual Taxable Person (CTP) means a person who occasionally

undertakes taxable supplies of goods or services in a State where he does not have a fixed place of

business. Registration as a CTP is mandatory irrespective of the turnover threshold. Such person is required

to obtain registration at least five days prior to commencement of business by filing online application in

Form GST REG-01 through the GST common portal managed by M/s. Goods and Services Tax Network

(GSTN) and by depositing the estimated tax liability in advance at the time of filing registration

application;

5) It has been observed that various outside agencies/persons who do not have fixed place of business

in the State of Goa are making outward taxable supplies of goods and/or services within the State of Goa

occasionally by utilizing premises/buildings/land belonging to the owner who is either a registered taxable

person or an unregistered person in Goa. The outside agency/person sometimes does not obtain GSTIN as a

Casual Taxable Person (CTP) before making such supply in the State, thereby violating provisions of GST

Law and thus evading tax liability. The concerned owner of the premises/buildings/land thus abets this

violation of GST Law and tax evasion by allowing the supply to take place from the

premises/buildings/land belonging to such owner;

6) In several cases, the duration of such events is short ranging from one day to sometimes one week

and after completion of the event, the owner of the premises/buildings/land fail to co-operate with GST

Officials to identify the tax evader and initiate proceedings to recover the tax with interest/penalty as per

GST law;

7) In view of above situations, and to prevent violation of GST law and to safeguard the State Revenue

by timely detecting such tax evasion and for initiating legal action against such tax evaders, all persons,

whether registered taxable persons or unregistered persons, who are owners or persons in possession of

immovable property/premises/buildings/enclosed spaces, etc. located in the State of Goa, and who permit

use of such premises for organizing such events, fashion shows, celebrity/celebrities events, music nights,

seminars, exhibitions, circus, theatrical performances including drama or dance, award functions, pageants,

concerts, musical performances, recognized sports events, planetarium events, trade fairs, mela, artistic &

theatrical performances and other such activities/similar events by whatever name called within the

jurisdiction of Goa, involving/likely to involve the supply of goods and/or services, are hereby directed to

the such immovable property, and the turnover and tax liability arising from such supply shall be assessed

considering the land owner as the supplier and accordingly the same will be assessed and tax dues with

interest/penalty as applicable shall be recovered from such owner/person in possession of immoveable

property in accordance with GST law;

10) In cases where the owner of the premises/buildings/land timely furnishes the information in

specified format in the manner laid down in this Order, and retain proper acknowledgment towards having

furnished required information, it shall be the duty of the Proper Officer of the Department having

jurisdiction over such premises/buildings/land to initiate timely action by conducting visit to such event,
