Stock Transfer Across Branches under GST

In Tally.ERP 9, you can easily record the transfer of materials from one branch or location to another. GST applicability depends on whether the receiving branch has the same GSTIN or a different GSTIN.

Local Transfer

Interstate Transfer

Stock transfer across branches includes scenarios such as:

Transfer of goods to another branch (including godown to godown) based on the demand

Transfer of finished goods to godown or warehouse for further supply or distribution

Transfer of semi-finished goods from the manufacturing unit to another unit for further processing

Local Transfer

In case of local branch transfer, the branches are located in the same state. If the receiving branch operates with the same GSTIN, then GST is not applicable. On the other hand, if the receiving branch or processing unit operates with a different GSTIN, then Central Tax and State Tax are applicable.
