Additional input tax credit under GST that increased the ITC-to-purchase ratio was treated as a benefit required to be passed on through commensurate price reduction under anti-profiteering law; the plea that unutilised ITC under an inverted duty structure was not a real benefit, and that prices were fixed by contract, was rejected.
