21-Jul-2017

Your shopping out of the accumulated loyalty or bonus points will face tax under the goods and services tax (GST) regime. GST would be levied on the total price of the product and not on the discounted value after adjusting the bonus, loyalty or rewards points.“Loyalty points are nothing but a mode of paymen.GST must be paid on total value of supply irrespective of the fact that loyalty points are utilised while making a purchase,” according to a report on textiles prepared by a group of officials.
