Section 16(5) of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act overrides section 16(4) and preserves input tax credit entitlement for specified financial years where the return under section 39 was filed by 30 November 2021. For Financial Year 2018-19, a return filed on 23 October 2019 fell within the preserved period. Denial of the related input tax credit was therefore impermissible, and the Order-in-Original denying the claim was set aside and quashed.
