RCM liability exists on supply of raw cotton. However since the commission agent does not purchase and sell the raw cotton but only provides the agency services, no liability in the hands of the agent but the purchaser would be liable.
Further there is an exemption vide entry No,57 of the notification 9/2017-IGST R for the service provided by a commission agent for sale or purchase of agricultural produce. This could be seen to identify if the commission agent would be liable for GST on the commission income received.
