  1. As per Notification 66 dtd 15th Nov 2017,its mentioned that “supply of goods at the time of supply as specified in clause (a) of sub section (2) of section 12 of GST act.” it means clause (b) of sub section (2) of section 12 of GST act is omitted ??
    In this case we have to pay central tax at the time of delivery of the goods and not at the time of received advance from client.
    Please clarify
