I think my question in last para is not answered. That is my major doubt. Please do not mistake me.<br \/>\nOur company is in Pondicherry and our employees are staying in Mumbai. Some hotels are giving only CGST+IGST bills as their place of supply is Maharastra. In that case, shall we take ITC of that CGST and SGST ???<br \/>\nMy major doubt is whether we can avail ITC of other state party&#39;s bill wherein CGST+SGST are charged . I know if they charge IGST , we can take credit.<br \/>\nReply By KASTURI SETHI:<br \/>\nThe Reply:<br \/>\nDear Querist, Your employee went out of State and he received service in the hotel there. Service provider provided service in his state. Hotel owner cannot charge IGST because there is no movement of goods or service out of State. <\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><strong>Plain text (Extract) only<\/strong><BR>For full text:-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.taxtmi.com\/forum\/issue?id=113342\">Visit the Source <\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\">=  =  =  =  =  =  =  =<\/p>\n<p>hat only IGST credit or CGST or SGST credit is to be taken.

Earlier, we were told if we enter the suppliers GST number of other states and if we try to avail ITC (CGST+SGST), GST portal won&#39;t allow. Now, I am clear that even the other state supplier&#39;s local tax (SGST+CGST) can also be availed ITC by us.
