Company Faces GST Issues: Payment Terms Over 180 Days Risk ITC Reversal, Interest Liability Under GST Rules A company faced issues with GST compliance due to payment terms exceeding 180 days, contrary to GST rules requiring payment within that period to retain Input Tax Credit (ITC). Experts advised that failure to pay within 180 days necessitates reversing ITC, which becomes part of the output liability with interest. ITC cannot be claimed after two years, as it must be taken within one year of the invoice date. For future contracts, precise wording is essential to avoid such issues. One suggestion was to reverse and re-avail ITC after payment, though this could lead to interest disputes. (AI Summary)
