ITC on Bill of Entries - Whether any time limit is applicable?, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[RAJAGOPAL OBBAI]

As per section 16 (4) reads with rule 36 there is no time limit for availing ITC in respect of BOEs , time limit is only for invoice/debit note. Therefore, no time limit is applicable with respect to credit availment on Bill of Entries under GST. Any different view please

I agree with your view that the time limit is only for debit notes (linked to invoice date) and invoice. In respect of BOE, no time limit for taking credit.

Sir,

Section 16(4) states "... any invoice..." and not invoice issued in accordance with provisions of Section 31. However, Bill of entry is assessed by Customs on the basis of Invoice issued by the foreign supplier, the Customs authority may accept the value or may assess as per the provision of Customs Act, and Valuation Rules. However, in absence of specifying Section 31 , ofcourse one can take the above stand.

However, it is debatable. this is my point of view. As it is upto department to take their course.

Thanks
