Bill not given with purchase

I made a purchase with a company. They did not send me any bill with it, except for a cash memo that just mentions the name of the distributor.

When asked to issue a bill against an extra 18% of the amount, they are not even providing me the details of the party who will issue the bill. 

Can they do this? Mention that for a GST bill, extra 18% needs to be paid? Because, they must not make any sale without a bill, right??

 



Quick Summary
If you've made a purchase and haven't received a proper bill or invoice, you have the right to one. The company may try to charge an extra 18% for a GST bill. If they insist on this additional charge, it's advisable to pay it and obtain the bill. Should they still refuse to provide a bill, you can file a complaint with the commercial taxes authority.

You have the right for a bill or an invoice.

If the company demands additional 18% of the value of the product if a bill is to be provided, then you accept their demand and make the payment and obtain the bill for the product purchased, if they still do not oblige then you can make a complaint against them with the commercial taxes authority for remedial action.
