Job Work under LBT is governed by Rule 28 (3) and Rule 28 (4), [exact wordings are mentioned at end of this post.]
The job work can be classified into two types
A - Goods coming in Thane City for Job Work
B - Goods going out of Thane City for Job Work
Here in the below diagrams and explanation -
"Thane City" is considered as LBT area and "Mumbai" considered as area outside LBT scope (this area can be either a non LBT area or another LBT area). Now let us understand each type individually.
In this case the the goods are moved in and outside the city two times, for the first time the goods are sent outside (for processing) hence no LBT as goods are not entering city.
2nd time when good enter city, they have been processed for which they were sent. Here LBT liability arises on the value of processing carried out. If a person seds his goods for say polishing and the job worker in Mumbai charges him Rs 10,000 on the goods then LBT has to be paid on 10,000 @ rate of 5% which comes to Rs. 500.
In this case when goods first enter the city, No LBT shall be payable if following conditions are satisfied
However, a dealer importing the goods for processing on regular basis, may make a deposit as standing deposit as may be fixed by the Commissioner from time to time.The job work can be classified into two types
