What would be the tax liability on replacement of parts (no consideration is charged from a customer) under a warranty and whether the supplier is required to reverse the input tax credit

  1. As parts are provided to the customer without a consideration under warranty, no GST is chargeable on such replacement.
  2. The value of supply made earlier includes the charges to be incurred during the warranty period.
  3. Therefore, the supplier who has undertaken the warranty replacement is not required to reverse the input tax credit on the parts/components replaced.
