Purchase of ‘Nil-Rated’, ‘Exempted’, Items & Goods using TallyPrime 4

With the introduction of GST, the goods and services have been classified into Nil Rated, Exempted, Zero Rated and Non-GST supplies. The Purchase or Sales of these goods to a local or interstate customer does not attract GST, and can be recorded using a Purchase / Sales voucher.  Let us take a look at what distinguishes each of them with some examples:

Supply	GST Applicable	Type of Supply	Eligibility for ITC	Examples
NIL Rated	0%	Everyday items	No	Grains, Salt, Jaggery, etc.
Exempted	–	Basis essentials	No	Bread, Fresh Fruits, Fresh Milk, Curd etc.
Non- GST	–	Supplies for which GST is not applicable but can attract other taxes	No	Petrol, Alcohol etc.

In case of above Items and Goods , the option Nil Rated / Exempt has to be selected as the Taxability in the GST Details screen of the item or  item group master.

Some examples of Nil Rated supplies are Grains, Salt, and Jaggery.
