https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=102168 Input Tax Credit under Section 16(2)(c) of the CGST Act remains conditional on the supplier's payment of tax, even where the purchasing dealer asserts bona fides. The text distinguishes the CGST framework from the Delhi VAT regime because CGST provides for reversal and subsequent re-availment of credit after the supplier discharges the tax liability. A purchaser therefore cannot claim parity with a bona fide purchaser under Delhi VAT when its supplier defaults. The condition was upheld as constitutional and not liable to be read down, and the challenge to its validity was rejected. en-us Wed, 29 Jul 2026 10:37:57 +0530 Wed, 29 Jul 2026 10:37:57 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=102168 Input Tax Credit under Section 16(2)(c) of the CGST Act remains conditional on the supplier's payment of tax, even where the purchasing dealer asserts bona fides.
