Transition Provisions, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[Jasbir Uppal]

Dear Professionals

1. The goods sold in the month of June 2017 & goods return by the recipient in the month of July 2017 as per transitional provisions of Sec 142 of CGST Act, 2017. The seller can claim refund under the respective Acts i.e. Excise or VAT Act subject to issue of debit note and credit note between the both parties.

My query is on the debit note credit note the tax charged on debit/credit note is to be VAT,Excise,GST and the format of debit/credit note will be according to GST Law or previous law?

2. As per GST guidelines the composition scheme for Traders/Manufacturers or restaurant business have to obtain composition scheme up to 21 July 2017, but the GST portal is having numerous errors are coming. Are any guidelines issued by GST authorities regarding the same.

Regards

Dear sir,

As per the sec 142 of GST Act, if the goods are supplied prior to GST and returned the goods post GST within six month from the date of issue of invoice, there are two situation arise B2B and B2C as follows.

1. In case B2B transaction, there is no sales return concept, if the goods return by the customer / recipient should issue their invoice and claim the input tax credit by the seller.

2. In case B2C transaction, the seller has to prove the sales return and apply refund from the earlier law.

If I'm wrong please correct me.

The sales return happening post GST of the goods sold pre GST then it is considered as Supply and customer has to raise tax invoice by charging applicable GST. The supplier receiving goods will be able to take the credit.
