Input Tax Credit on IGST charged for goods delivered to another state may be claimable subject to place of supply. Respondents agree that a Maharashtra recipient can claim Input Tax Credit of IGST paid on goods procured and delivered directly to a Gujarat site when the supplier has charged IGST in a bill-to-ship-to arrangement; eligibility remains subject to standard ITC conditions. The correct tax charged (IGST versus CGST+SGST) depends on the place of supply determination and must be verified against the applicable place-of-supply rules. (AI Summary)
