Also our audit under EA-2000 has been completed till June, 2017 in May, 2019. Kindly advise. Reply By KASTURI SETHI: The Reply: Carrying forward Cenvat Credit through TRANS-1, is subject to verification of docs. If you are thinking on time-bar issue, you can fight. Once audit is conducted, the extended period cannot be invoked. There are case laws to this effect (pertaining to pre-GST era.) Reply By Shilpi Jain: The Reply: Also if different officers are trying to look into the same aspect, you can write to them stating this was already verified and no discrepancies were communicated in this regard.

Reply By Murari Agrawal: The Reply: Sri Kasturi Sir all our documents are in order, we want your opinion on whether the Inspector is correct in asking for stock statement to ascertain the quantum of credit we are eligible to avail. Reply By KASTURI SETHI: The Reply: Yes. The Inspector is correct in asking for docs pertaining to Cenvat Credt carried forward in TRANS-1. Verification of docs is as per GST laws. Reply By Murari Agrawal: The Reply: I agree that they can ask for all documents, including stock statement, which we are ready to produce.

I suppose this is applicable to those who were not already registered and have to declare their stocks for getting corresponding credit. Reply By Murari Agrawal: The Reply: Dear experts kindly reply to my query Reply By KASTURI SETHI: The Reply: At present stock is not available for physical verification. Whatever you have declared in TRANS-1, that must tally with your books of accounts. The Department is empowered to scrutinize TRANS-1 with your books of account maintained by you. If you think that verification is to be done for those declarant who were not registered with the department prior to 30.6.17 is not correct.

See Rule 121 of CGST/SGST Rules, 2017 read with Rule 117 (3). Reply By Murari Agrawal: The Reply: Perhaps I am not able to frame my query properly. During previous tax regime, excise duty on our raw material was 12.5%, while on final product it was 6%, hence there was accumulation of duty and our closing stock was not proportionate to duty amount. We are ready to cooperate and produce all documents required for verification, including stock statements. My query is after all documents are found ok during verification, whether we are entitled to full amount brought forward by us as per our excise records, or the entitlement will be proportionate to closing stock as .....

Reply By Amit Agrawal: The Reply: Dear Querist, From your query and your various post/s thereafter including last Post No. 8, it is my understanding that your case is that of 'transfer of closing Cenvat Credit - as per last excise-return - through Trans-1' using the provisions of sub-section (1) of section 140 of the CGST Act, 2017. It is further understood that Cenvat Credit so transferred is much more as compared to 'duty calculated "corresponding" to your actual closing stock (of raw material material / Inputs, WIP and finished goods) as on 30.06.2017'. And this is due to reason that excise duty on your raw material was 12.5% while on finished goods, you paid excise duty only @ 6% (resu .....

In such a case, in my view, you are duly entitled to transfer entire closing Cenvat Credit balance - as per you last excise return. And non-availability of "corresponding" closing stock as on 30.06.2017 is wholly irrelevant. In other words, transfer of Cenvat Credit balance - under said Section 140 (1) - can NOT be restricted to 'proportionate to duty calculated w.r.t. value of closing stock as on 30th June, 2017'. Reply By Amit Agrawal: The Reply: I would also suggest to submit 'Stock Statement/s as on 30.06.2017' to Dept. officer while simultaneously explaining above legal & factual position as well. Reply By GB Rao: The Reply: Dear querist ..... X X X X Extracts X X X X X X X X Extracts X X X X ..... , As per your query, it is seen that you have taken credit of closing balance available as on 30.06.2017 as Tran 1 credit. If that is the case, then verification of your input invoices from January, 2017 to June, 2017 is proper and wherever ineligible credit is noticed that need to be reversed/paid by you. The question of verification of stock does not arise in this case. Reply By AMIT GUPTA: The Reply: As per Section 140(5) of CGST Act, 2017, transitional credit can be availed in respect of inputs or input services received on or after 1 July 2017, the duty or tax in respect of which has been paid by the supplier under the existing law, subject to the condition that the invoice or any other duty or tax paying document of the same was re .....

My question is what is the meaning of thirty days from the appointed day 1 July 2017 to 30th July' 2017 or 1 July to 31 July'2017 because we have entered the ISD invoice in the books dt. 31July'2017. what this amount allow or disallow by the department.
