Typically, principal manufacturers supply fabric/Sarees to Job workers and get various embroidery designs done on the fabric/sarees. We understand that the textile jobworker would charge an output supply GST of 5% on the composite jobwork supply. This embroidery fabric/saree are then sold by the principal manufacturers to wholesale and retail sellers. What would be the output GST applicable on such embroidered fabric/sarees when the same is sold by the principal manufacturer?</span></p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\">&nbsp;</p>\n\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"color:#34495e\"><strong>Answer:</strong> The rate of 5% would be chargeable on the job process relating to the textile yarns (other than Man Made Fibre/Filament) and fabrics. Sarees are treated as fabrics and a saree remains fabrics only as no new item emerges having distinct name, character and use. Stitching of two or more different kinds of fabrics also does not take away its classification. Therefore, the sarees whether embroidered or not would be taxed at the same rate at which the fabric is taxed.</span></span></p>','','1','6.12',NULL,'1','2','1','0','1','2021-05-06 11:28:09','2021-05-06 16:58:09'),(945,87,'6.13 Will the 5 % fabric GST be applied or 12% GST of embroidery strips / badges be applied?','','single','html','<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"color:#34495e\">Embroidery strips/ badges (narrow woven fabrics) are classified under heading 5810 and chargeable to tax at 12%.</span></span></p>','','1','6.13',NULL,'1','2','1','0','1','2021-04-29 17:47:32','2021-04-29 17:47:32'),(946,87,'6.14 What is the difference between Fabric and Made-ups?
