Hi,
I am breaking your question into multiple pieces to make it easier to understand.
Payment to Nonresident Taxable Person (NRTP)
Section 2(77) of CGST Act, 2017 says that a Non-Resident Taxable Person means “any person who occasionally undertakes transactions involving the supply of goods or services, or both, whether as principal or agent or in any other capacity, but who has no fixed place of business or residence in India.”
Requirement of Registration in India
Section 24 of the CGST Act, 2017, required NRTP to register under GST law mandatorily five days before the commencement of the business irrespective of the minimum threshold turnover limit.
Applicability of RCM
Since NRTP requires the registration, he has to deposit tax in advance, equivalent to the estimated tax liability calculated on the value of taxable supply for the period for which the registration has been obtained.
Conclusion: GST should be paid under forward charge, not under reverse charge.
