Input tax credit reversal on supplier credit notes was not mandatory; bona fide IGST adjustment did not attract fresh demand.
Case-Laws
GST
Recipient input tax credit did not require reversal solely because a supplier issued credit notes during the relevant period: neither the Act nor the Rules imposed that obligation, the statutory matching mechanism was inoperative, and Rule 37 concerned non-payment to suppliers. Accordingly, the premise for reversal failed. Excess IGST adjusted against CGST and SGST liabilities was procedurally irregular because the prescribed refund, re-credit or subsequent IGST-adjustment route was not used. However, as a bona fide first-year GST correction causing no revenue loss, it did not justify a fresh tax demand, interest or penalty; the departmental appeal was dismissed.
