Input tax credit transfer: cannot pass to a non legal heir such as son in law absent a will; use ITC 02 procedure.
Transferability of ITC on a proprietor's death is limited to lawful successors: a son in law is not a legal heir absent an express will. Transfer should be effected as a transfer of business with compliance steps such as filing Form ITC 02 where appropriate, and by following administrative guidance including Board Circular No. 96/15/2019 GST.
