Since the inception of GST, it has changed how we approach our indirect taxes in India. With its unified structure and simplified process, GST has streamlined the movement of goods and services nationwide. But there is also a complex web of rules in determining supply valuation in GST. So let’s dive in and understand the concept in detail.
The supply valuation in GST refers to the price the customer pays the supplier for a transaction. This price includes extra charges such as shipping and handling fees but does not include GST. In some instances, some transactions are not sales like transfer of stock between two states but are still considered as the taxable value of supply. In some cases, the value of supply is regarded as the open market value or the amount the goods are expected to sell for.
The amount of GST applicable on a transaction depends on the value of goods and services sold or transferred. Buyers pay for the goods or services to the seller by cash or online transfer. The buyers can also transact with non- monitory considerations by giving the seller other goods or services in exchange.
In some cases, the buyers may partly pay for the transaction in cash and partly in kind in exchange for some goods or services, so it is essential to accurately calculate the supply valuation in GST.
In cases when the transactions are not made in INR, the taxpayer may raise the invoice in foreign currency. The IGST (if any) is charged in the invoice and is converted by using the regulatory authority's Exchange Rate, which is available on this website, and the same rates are applicable in the case of imports as well.
The valuation of supply under the GST framework is vital to ensure the GST is calculated accurately. Therefore, you can ensure smooth business operations by effectively understanding and applying the valuation provisions.

The value of taxable supply in GST refers to the monetary transaction associated with a supply of goods or services that are liable to be taxed under the GST system. It includes all costs and expenses, such as shipping and handling fees. The value of taxable supply forms the basis for calculating the applicable GST tax liability.
Rule 29 of the value of supply is a specific provision under the GST law that highlights the method of finding out the value of a supply in some instances. And this is more useful where the transaction is only done partially in money. It ensures consistency in the calculation of GST.
