RCM-GTA-5% - ITC ELIGIBILITY, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[Govinda Raju]

Hi,

Can we have clarification as to RCM paid at 5% on GTA is eligible ITC or ineligible ITC.

on the other hand if GTA entity pays GST at 5% and appearing in GSTR-2B - are we eligible for ITC credit.

Sh.Govinda Raju Ji,

W.e.f. 18.7.22, the option to pay GST @ 5% without ITC under forward charge mechanism by GTA was introduced. Prior to 18.7.22, the only option was to pay GST @ 12 % with ITC by GTA under FCM.

For more details see Issue ID 117765 dated 22.1.22 which was raised by you.

Dear Sir

It appears the dark clouds surrounding this issue are not yet dispersed, despite thoughtful clarification.

Sh.Sadanand Bulbule Ji,

Sir, If the dark clouds still persist, then the querist may apply to the jurisdictional AAR for further clarification on a specific problem/issue.

Dear Sir

AAR is an expensive and time consuming process and the final product is the same.

For you to take credit or be eligible to take credit, it does not matter the rate of tax that you pay for your expenses.

Hence, if you are providing taxable supplies you would be eligible to take ITC.

in both cases you are eligible I endorsed the view of Silpi Jain Madam.
