https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93398 The AAAR dismissed the appeal and held that import IGST paid via TR-6 challan is not an admissible document for claiming ITC because a TR-6 is a Treasury payment instrument and not a "bill of entry or any similar document" prescribed under the Customs Act or rules; consequently TR-6 (alone or read with SVB orders/letters) cannot support ITC. A re-assessed bill of entry, however, constitutes a prescribed document under r.36(1)(d) and thus may permit ITC, but such availment is governed by the time-bar in s.16(4) CGST, applied to IGST claims by s.20 IGST Act mutatis mutandis. Appeal dismissed. en-us Thu, 16 Oct 2025 08:30:14 +0530 Thu, 16 Oct 2025 08:30:16 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=93398 The AAAR dismissed the appeal and held that import IGST paid via TR-6 challan is not an admissible document for claiming ITC because a TR-6 is a Treasury payment instrument and not a "bill of entry or any similar document" prescribed under the Customs Act or rules; consequently TR-6 (alone or read with SVB orders/letters) cannot support ITC.
