Hi,

Via Finance Act 2012, w.e.f. 01-07-2012, TCS rate of 1% has been specified on coal.

We have a case wherein an Indian resident is importing coal from abroad. The said consignment is coming via sea. During shipment, the resident importer sold the consignment via transfer of documents to another resident; i.e. high seas sales were made.

Will the said transaction be covered under TCS?

We are unable to draw any conclusion or come across any circular or case law to substantiate the same.

Can anyone provide any assistance?

Dear Sir,
First thing TCS is to be collected by the seller, in your case the seller being a foreigner is not bound under Indian Tax laws.
No question of TCS arises.

Dear Mam,

In the above case, a Resident has purchased goods from abroad. The same resident sells the same on high seas basis to another Resident. The question as cited by Mr. Dhanuka was that whether the Importer i.e. the resident is to deduct TCS on the sales made by him to another Individual. ( Please Clarify Mr. Dhanuka if i am wrong ).

TCS is only not deducted when  the same are purchased by the buyer for personal consumption. Further, the seller of these minerals shall not collect tax if the buyer declares that these minerals are to be utilized for the purposes of manufacturing, processing or producing articles or things. If the Person to whom the High Seas sales were made fall in any of the above two categories, TCS shall not be deducted, otherwise no such exemption.

Thanks & Best Regards,

Sanjeet Singh

Dear Sirs, 

Now that It is clear that TCS is applicable on High Sea Sales, one more question arises. When we make high sea sales we raise sale invoice when the goods (coal in this case) is still on high seas (ie. in transit). So while raising invoice, we take exchange rate as on B/L date, add our trading margin and arrive at a value and collect 1% TCS on that value. However we make the supplier payment much after goods arrived, ie against L/c and exchange loss/gain if any is transferred the seller again through debit/credit notes. 

Question is, In case there is exchange loss, ie, we paid supplier more and transfer the exchange fluctuation along with our margin to the seller through debit note, whether TCS is applicable on the additional sale value too? Please clarify. If applicable is it due in the month of payment to supplier or in case we transfer the exchange loss to our seller in next month, is it due in that month?

Dear Mr.S Singh,
Understand that TCS in not deducted when the same are purchased by the buyer:
1. For personal consumption. 
2. The buyer declares that these minerals are to be utilized for the purposes of manufacturing, processing or producing articles or things.

What if the buyer is purchasing the minerals for resale? Can he issue Form 27C? 
Reason I am asking this is that in Form 27C it is only mentioned as purposes of manufacturing, processing or producing articles or things.

I have purchased minerals on High Sea Sale and reason for purchase by me is for resale. Can I issue Form 27C to my supplier or shall I ask them to collect TCS?

Kindly advice.

Thanks,
VKS
