Narendra Babu KV: Please clarify me is there any exemption clause in GST act for the international ATM debit card issued by Royal Bank of Scotland. or is the GST is compulsory for ATM debit cards and how much it is

birendra goyal: notification no. 18/2018-IT(R) has been issued on 26.07.18 inserting an explanation in NN. 18/2017-IT(R) dated 28.06.17. The notification should have been issued within one year of the original notification, i.e. within 28.06.2018 but it has been issued on 26.07.2018. is the inserted explanation not ultra vires
