availing ITC after September 2019

[RajivKumar Gawri]

I have not filed my GSTR-3B for the month of January 2019, February 2019 and March 2019. I will file the same with late fees and interest. Can I claim Input Tax Credit in respect of the supply of goods and services received by me during those months even when the date of availing the same as per Section 16 has already passed

AI Summary

Late GSTR-3B Filing Bars Input Tax Credit Claim for Jan-Mar 2019; ITC Deadline for FY 2018-19 Passed A participant in a discussion forum inquired about claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) for goods and services received during January to March 2019, despite filing GSTR-3B late. The responses indicated that the deadline for claiming ITC for the fiscal year 2018-2019 had passed, and any attempt to claim it now would likely be disallowed during assessment. Additionally, it might be flagged by the GST auditor during the filing of GST 9/9C. Another participant concurred with this assessment, affirming that the ITC claim would not be permissible.
