AI Summary

Debate on Using Input Tax Credit for GST on Castor Oil Seeds Under Reverse Charge Mechanism A query was raised regarding the utilization of Input Tax Credit (ITC) under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) framework, specifically whether ITC earned on inputs for bullion can be used for GST liabilities on 'Castor Oil Seed' procured from agriculturists. One response indicated that under the reverse charge mechanism, ITC cannot be utilized in this manner. However, another response suggested that there is no requirement for a direct correlation between the inputs and outputs, advocating for an appeal against the ruling and supporting the use of ITC for GST on castor oil seeds. A third participant agreed with this perspective.
