|
The scope of charge of GST extends to all sectors of the economy including the fisheries activities. As such, fishermen are also required to be registered under the GST subject to the threshold that has been stipulated. However, where the fisheries products are goods not subject to GST (subject to tax at zero-rate), the fishermen can request to be exempted from registration. |
