e filling the declaration (GST-Tran-1) for carry forward of credit you have to reduce your Input tax credit by ₹ 3,000 (5% of ₹ 100,000 Reduced by 2% of ₹ 100,000).
Q6. A registered person, say, purchases capital goods under the existing law (Central Excise) in the June quarter of 2017-18. Though the invoice has been received within 30th June but the capital goods are received on 5th July, 2017 (i.e. in GST regime). Will such a person get full credit of CENVAT in GST regime?
Ans. Yes, he will be entitled to credit in 2017-18 provided such a credit was admissible as CENVAT credit in the existing law and is also admissible as credit in CGST section 140(2) of the CGST Act.
Q7. We are a manufacturer and we have purchased a machinery in April,2017 worth ₹ 1 crore on which we have paid Excise duty (ED) of ₹ 15,00,000. We have availed 50 % credit of such ED. 50% is still unavailed. What about carry forward of such credit?

arrears of tax under GST.
Q10. Give two examples of registered taxable persons who are not liable to be registered under the existing law (Central Excise/VAT) but are required to be registered under GST?
Ans. Examples are as below:
*
A manufacturer having a turnover of say ₹ 60 lakh who is enjoying SSl exemption under the existing law will have to be registered under GST as the said turnover exceeds the basic threshold of ₹ 20 lakh under section 22 of CGST Act.
A trader having turnover below the threshold under VAT but, making sales through ecommerce operator will be required to be registered in GST. There will be no threshold for such person(s) under section 24 of CGST Act.
Q11. Will ITC be allowed to a service provider on VAT paid inputs held as stock on the appointed day?
Ans. Yes, he will be entitled to input tax credit on inputs held in stock in accordance with the provisions of section 140(3) of CGST Act.
Q12. We are VAT Registered dealer of “X Goods”

Such invoice should not be older than 12 months.
e) The supplier of service is not eligible for any abatement under GST.
Q13. We are VAT Registered dealer of “Y Goods” in Gujarat. We do not have any other indirect tax registration. We purchase the “Y Goods” from wholesaler who issues us only VAT invoice. Now we are holding 1000 units of “Y Goods” (Selling price of ₹ 100 per unit) on the appointed day. We already have availed VAT credit for the same.
Ans. This case falls under the provisions of Deemed Credit.
As per Proviso to Section 140(3) read with Rule 1(3)(a) In case where the person does not have duty paid document with him in such case he will be eligible for the credit at the rate of:
a.60% of CGST where CGST RATE is 9% or more and
b. 40% in all other cases.
So now if “Y Goods” are rated at 18% GST (9% CGST and 9% SGST) you will be eligible for credit at the rate of 60% x 9% x (1000 units x ₹ 100)= ₹ 5400. However first you will have to pay the tax and

that no capital goods are in transit as on 30th June 2017.
Q15. We are Service Tax Registered entity. Is there any requirement under GST that my Service tax Return has to be filed within prescribed time to carry forward the credit of existing law to GST? Can I revise such return later on?
Ans. Yes, as per provision to section 140(8), you will have to file your Service tax return or for that matter any other return within 3 months from the appointed date subject to penalty.
I mentioned penalty because as per Service tax provisions you will have to file your return within 25 days however you can file your return late subject to Penalty.
As far as revision is concerned you can definitely revise your return but only within 3 months from the appointed date (1st July 2017). Further, the credit balance shown in the revise return should be same or less than original return.
So the credit amount as per revise return cannot be more than original return. So be careful while filling your orig
