https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=105123 Input tax credit claimed in Form GSTR-3B is not denied merely because it is absent from Form GSTR-2A, which operated as a facilitative mechanism during the relevant period; the claimant must nevertheless prove statutory credit conditions, including supplier tax payment. Section 35(6) applies only to goods not accounted for, so verified reconciliation of e-way bills with invoices and ledger entries prevents a demand based on deemed outward supplies. Interest on wrongly availed credit arises only on utilisation, determined where the electronic credit ledger balance falls below that credit; pre-notice tax payment without interest bars notice and penalty. Sales-return credit notes can reduce taxable value and output tax liability subject to statutory conditions, and non-reporting in Form GSTR-1 is a compliance lapse rather than an independent tax liability. en-us Sat, 17 Oct 2026 05:20:35 +0530 Sat, 17 Oct 2026 05:20:36 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/highlights?id=105123 Input tax credit claimed in Form GSTR-3B is not denied merely because it is absent from Form GSTR-2A, which operated as a facilitative mechanism during the relevant period; the claimant must nevertheless prove statutory credit conditions, including supplier tax payment.
