Court allows transitional credit claim under GST rules, directs prompt consideration of representation
The court allowed the petitioner's claim for transitional credit under GST regulations, permitting the claiming of input tax credit for stock held beyond 12 months from the appointed date. The court directed the authorities to consider the petitioner's representation promptly, following a previous ruling deeming the restriction on credit for goods purchased before one year from the appointed day as unconstitutional. The respondents were given four weeks to complete the process, and the writ application was disposed of with permission for direct service.
Issues Involved: Claim for transitional credit under GST regulations.
Analysis: The writ application under Article 226 of the Constitution of India sought relief to amend or re-open GST Form-Tran 1 filed by the petitioner and to carry forward in-transit credit beyond 12 months from the effective date of 1.07.2017 in electronic credit ledger. The petitioner, a Private Limited Company engaged in trading, claimed transitional credit under Section 140(3) of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017. The petitioner computed transitional credit without claiming Input Tax Credit for stock held prior to 01.07.2016. Following a court decision allowing credit for stock held beyond 12 months from 01.07.2017, the petitioner requested authorities to enable claiming such credit. Despite multiple representations, authorities did not respond.
The court referred to a previous judgment where it held that the provision restricting credit for goods purchased prior to one year from the appointed day was unconstitutional. In light of this, the court directed the respondents to consider the petitioner's representation to claim in put tax credit for stock held prior to 12 months from the appointed date. The respondents were instructed to complete this exercise within four weeks from the date of receiving the court's order. The court disposed of the writ application, permitting direct service.
In conclusion, the judgment addressed the issue of transitional credit under GST regulations and the entitlement of businesses to claim credit for stock held beyond 12 months from the appointed date. The court emphasized the importance of following its previous ruling and directed the respondents to consider the petitioner's claim promptly.
