All you should know while filing Form GST TRAN-1 (Transitional Provisions)

[CASanjay Kumawat]

The main objective of transitional provisions is to provide a safe cushion for existing taxpayers to adapt the new legislation without any shock. In the same lines, filing of GST TRAN forms is the second stage for persons under GST in the month of August, 2017. It is important to claim the benefits of ITC and save working capital needs of the persons.

There is lot of confusion among industry and trade on understanding of the transitional provisions as well as filing requirement of form GST TRAN, therefore this article is written to provide conceptual clarity on objective of transitional form and how to file this form along with data requirement and calculation mechanics for detailed field wise submission in this form.

The GST tax portal is likely to offer from 21^st August, 2017 forms to claim credit on sales made or services rendered before the rollout of GST, which the taxpayers have to file by August 28. Although, due date for filing of GSTR-3B has been extended upto 25^th August 2017 for the persons who do not want to avail the transitional credits while paying their tax liabilities. But due date for filing of the GSTR-3B for those persons who do want to claim transitional credits is 28^th August 2017 but they have to pay GST liability on or before 25^th August, 2017. Now, question comes that how to determine the GST liability before filing of GST TRAN form. In this respect, GST liability shall be determined as follows:

Tax payable= (Output tax liability + Tax payable under reverse charge) – (Transitional credit + input tax credit availed for the month of July, 2017).

Under GST regime, two types of TRAN forms have been prescribed, description and due dates are as follows:

S.No.	Description	Form Type	Due date
1.	Tax or duty credit carried forward under any existing law or on goods held in stock on the appointed day	FORM GST TRAN-1	Upto 30.09.2017 (within ninety days of the appointed day)
2.	Tax or duty credit on goods held in stock on the appointed day where taxpaying documents not available	FORM GST TRAN-2	Upto 31.12.2017 ( within six tax periods from the appointed date
3	Declaration to be made under clause (c) of sub-section (11) of section 142 , i.e., composite supply case under earlier taxation regime	FORM GST TRAN-1	Upto 30.09.2017 (within ninety days of the appointed day)
4.	Declaration of stock held by a principal and job-worker	FORM GST TRAN-1	Upto 30.09.2017 (within ninety days of the appointed day)
5.	Details of goods sent on approval basis	FORM GST TRAN-1	Upto 30.09.2017 (within ninety days of the appointed day)

Before understanding of the transitional provisions and this form minutely in its field wise requirement, first take a look at few important points in this regard:

1. TRAN form needs to be filed by the persons who do want to claim transitional credit.
2. It needs to be filed online only at the common portal i.e. www.gst.gov.in.
3. TRAN forms as discussed above, shall be required to file with in time specified in the law.

Having understood the description and time limits, we shall now understand the form in detail with field-wise reporting requirement along with how data/ information must be identified, computed and assimilated by the business to ensure error free filing of this form. Detailed analysis of TRAN-1 is as follows:

Field No. 4 : Whether all the returns required under existing law for the period of six months immediately preceding the appointed date have been furnished:- Yes/No

Under Service tax, last date for filing of service tax return for the period April to June, 2017 was 15^th August, 2017 and for the period January to March, 2017 was 25^th April, 2017.

• This table has to be filed by all persons registered under GST (except composition dealers under GST laws.)

• This Part is to be filed in respect of only those taxes for which the dealer is registered under existing laws. (eg. VAT/Excise/Service Tax etc.)

• Section 140(1): A registered person shall be entitled to take, in his electronic credit ledger, the amount of CENVAT credit carried forward in the return relating to the period ending with the day immediately preceding the appointed day, furnished by him under the existing law.

• Section 140(4) (a) : A registered person, who was engaged in the manufacture of taxable as well as exempted goods under the Central Excise Act, 1944 or provision of taxable as well as exempted services under Chapter V of the Finance Act, 1994, but which are liable to tax under this Act, shall be entitled to take, in his electronic credit ledger the amount of CENVAT credit carried forward in a return furnished under the existing law by him.

3. Amount of tax credit carried forward to electronic credit ledger as State/UT Tax (For all registrations on the same PAN and in the same State)

		C Forms		F Forms			H/I Forms
Registration No. in existing law	Balance of ITC of VAT and [Entry Tax] in last return	Turnover for which forms Pending	Difference tax payable on (3)	Turnover for which forms Pending	Tax payable on (5)	ITC reversal relatable to [(3) and] (5)	Turnover for which forms Pending	Tax payable on (7)	Transition ITC 2- (4+6-7+9)

• If the taxable person was engaged in inter-state sale, the credit as is attributable to any claim related to section 3, 5(3), 6, 6A or 8(8) of the CST Act, 1956 which is not substantiated in the manner, and within the three months after end of the period (quarterly for form C) to which it relates, specified in Rule 12 of the CST (Registration and Turnover) Rules, 1957 shall not be eligible to be credited to the electronic credit ledger. [Second proviso to section 140(1) of the SGST Act, 2017]

• When the said claims are substantiated, the amount will be refunded to the taxable person. [Third proviso to section 140(1) of the SGST Act, 2017]

• These tables are relevant in case where registered person has purchased inputs on payment of VAT for the purpose of making inter-state sales and VAT credit is claimed in his return. According to second and third proviso, VAT credit to the extent of inter-state supplies which are not substantiated cannot be carried forward. Hence, balance credit can be claimed as transitional credit.

• Accordingly, in case of inter-state sales, if the recipient issues Form C and other forms, i.e., F, H, I or J, or E-II, then CST rate is 2 percent. If the form is not received then CST payable is equal to state VAT rate. Thus, if VAT rate is 20 percent and no forms have received then CST rate would be 20 percent. Therefore, in case where, no required form has been received upto 30.09.2017 in respect to inter-state sales made as on 30.06.2017. In that case, the claim is not substantiated. Hence, the credit of VAT equal to difference between 20 percent and 2 percent will not be eligible for carry forward.

• It may be noted in case where such person is not engaged in inter-state sale then there is no restriction to carry forward the VAT credits to in GST regime.

• It may further be noted that credit of CST shall not be allowed to carry forward in GST regime.

• “Unavailed  CENVAT credit” means the amount that remains after subtracting the amount of CENVAT credit already availed in respect of capital goods by the taxable person under the existing law from the aggregate amount of CENVAT credit to which the said person was entitled in respect of the said capital goods under the existing law.

• The registered person shall not be allowed to take credit unless the said credit was admissible as CENVAT credit under the existing law and is also admissible as input tax credit under GST Act.

• In Central Excise, CENVAT Credit of capital goods is available in two years, i.e., 50 in first year and balance 50 percent in next year. In some states, VAT credit is allowed in 2-3 years.

Question.

As per Section 140(7), an ISD can distribute the Input tax Credit on account of any services received prior to appointed day by it even if invoices relating to such services are received after the appointed day. This provision is notwithstanding anything contained contrary to CGST Act.

Now pl provide guidance that an ISD receiving invoices relating to services received in June,2017 in August 20, 2017 after he has already filed his ST3 return for the quarter June,2017, then how he will be able to transfer such credit in new regime? The Trans 1 has no column for section 140(7).

[R.S. Mangal]

If an manufacturer has the credit of Cenvat Credit balance as on 30.06.2017 for carried forward but does not any credit available for VAT, then whether the details related to C,F,I,H form received from 01.04.2015 till 30.06.2017 or pending of such forms is required to be disclosed in Trans 1. In our view if no VAT credit is to be carried forward then such details is not required to be mentioned. There are contrary views also in market.

What is the legal position, can you guide.

Reply

In my view, ISD has to revise the return and claim the credit with reference to the section 140(1) of the CGST Act, 2017. In TRAN-I, this claim is to be shown in Table No. 5(a).

This credit is to be claimed in Table No. 8 of the GSTR-2 and in GSTR-3B, in ‘all other ITC’ of Table No. 4.

Reply: Forms detail is required to be given only in case when assessment is pending for the forms/turnover and not in all cases. It may be noted that in case if you do not want to carry forward the VAT credits then there is no any requirement of filing of forms in TRAN-1 form.

Q Thanks Sanjayji, I still have doubt because as per Section 142(9)(b) of CGST Act,2017 , where any return furnished under the erstwhile CE or Finance Act is revised and if pursuant to such revision Cenvat Credit is found admissible then same shall be refunded under old laws. But question is how an ISD will get the refund or whether still it can transfer credit in view of specific provision under Section 140(7) of CGSt Act.

Pl advise.

Sir, Section 140(7) starts from the non-obstante clause, i.e., "(7) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Act, the input tax credit..............". Therefore, in my view, you can carry forward the credit by revising your service tax return.

[Prateek Diwan]

Can second stage dealer take the credit of excise dudy paid by him to first stage dealer...if FSD provide its purchase bill evidencing payment of duty by him..??

[CASanjay Kumawat]

Yes, second stage dealer can take the credit of eligible duties including excise duty. Legal reference : Section 140(3) of the CGST Act, 2017.

[Manoj Kasture]

A builder has construction WIP. This is construction completed for unsold flats. Can he take credit of the ED and VAT which is part of Construction WIP?

[Manoj Kasture]

We have received bills dated prior to 30th June 17 now (i.e) after June qtr results are declared and also after filing service tax returns. Can we take CENVAT of such service tax charged by service provider thru TRAN-1? Books cannot be changed. Can we take credit by revising service tax returns?

[CASanjay Kumawat]

Sir, with reference to section 140(3) read with section 17(5) of the CGST Act, 2017, a builder who is providing construction services cannot take the credit of inputs or input services. However a contractor can take if he was paying service tax under abatement scheme.

[CASanjay Kumawat]

With reference to section 142(9)(b) of the CGST Act, credit admissible after revision of return will be refunded. Therefore, you may not carry forward the same through TRAN -1.

Then my doubt is whether I fill only Field No 5 or fill both field 5 and 7?

[Sumit Poddar]

There is some point to be understand very carefully that deemed credit will provided to manufacturers who were not registered under exise

If not then how a small manufacturer will survive

Govt made us fool if old stock is there on 30/06

for eg

old tax regime

selling price 500 , vat 14% 70 , total 570

In GST

selling price 500 GST 28% total 640

Who will buy from us.....

Hello Sir,

I would like to know how to open the submitted TRANS-1 Form?

[Sushil Kumar]

Dear Sir,

For a VAT dealer who is actually the first stage dealer is holding tax invoice containing excise duty for the purchases lying in stock on 30.06.2017. Is my understanding correct with respect to claiming the excise on such unsold stock in GST transition provisions.

Sir, can an existing registered dealer claim the transitional credit for the input services received prior to appointed day and the invoice for which has been received after appointed day. He has not taken cenvat credit under the existing law due to late receipt of invoice. If yes under which section or rule.

we have filed tran-1 before filing ER-3 for the 1st qtr-2017, the 1st qtr duty liability was 2.6 lakhs (we have cenvat credit on mar-2017 3.8Lakhs)

after we have realised and filed ER-3 returns on Nov-2017 and trans-1 revised as on same.

now the issue is as per CGST act 2017 section 140(1) cenvat credit admissible or not, please give the replay on this issue.
