GST if working in US based organization with no office in India


19-Jan-2023 (In GST Law)
I am working for a US-based research organization. They don't have any office in India. They funded a project in UP in collaboration with government medical college. I am on board as an individual consultant with direct consultancy agreement with this organization. My annual earning is around 12 lakhs i.e. i.e. Dollars 1500 is credited to my account in India. Do I need to pay GST on this and if so, as I register now, can I pay the GST for the previous month. Thanks

The threshold limit for registration under GST is INR 20 Lakhs. As your Consultancy income is below 20 lacs, you are not liable to register under CGST. Please refer Section 22 of the CGST Act, 2017. Therefore, you are not liable to pay any GST in India.
