Input tax credit denial based solely on a GSTR-2A/GSTR-3B mismatch requires transaction-level verification of reconciliations, invoices, records and supplier-tax-payment conditions; a mismatch alone does not establish ineligibility.

Tax demands must remain within the grounds and tax heads proposed in the show-cause notice, supported by a reasoned computation and factual basis. The CBIC ITC-verification mechanism applies only from April 2019 to 8 October 2019, requiring separate examination of later periods under the applicable substantive provisions.
