Reversal of ITC in case of Nil Rated Supply of Goods, Goods and Services Tax - GST

[SolarworldEnergySolutions PrivateLimited]

Dear Experts,

We have imported Oats Grains from outside India and Sold the same domestically apart from some other taxable supplies. Since the said items falls under HSN 1004 in Schedule I (List of Nil Rated Goods), we have not charged GST on sale and accordingly declared as Nil rated supply in GST return. Is there any reversal of ITC required in such scenario? Please given reference if yes/no.

Thank you

Yes ITC reversal is mandatory not only on the directly related supplies but on the proportionate common inputs like rent, consultancy, audit fees, stationery relating to the said period.  Thanks

Dear Sir,

I concur with Sri Sri Kalpathi Sir. Exempted supplies along with Taxable supplies required to reverse ITC proportionately as provided under Rule 42 of the GST Law.

[KASTURI SETHI]

Yes, reversal is required as per Section 17 (1) & (2) of CGST Act, 2017.

Specific expenses for making the exempt supplies (GST on machinery, etc.) - not eligible for credit.

Common expenses (like rent, etc.) - to be claimed only in proportion of taxable turnover during the year.

Dear Sirs, 

I do agree with Sri Devara Sivaprasad. 'Seigniorage' charges are similar to Royalty charges and are payable under RCM as  Sri Kasturi Sethi Ji opined.  The query does not explain how it was paid under FCM. Once tax liability is admitted on the same, there is no need to pay again.
