FAQ on GST:

QueryIn case the amount is paid partly to the supplier of service, whether full taxes can be adjusted first? If No then whether it has to be calculated proportionately?

Answer: No. there is no provision under the GST law to allocate part payment of the invoice towards the taxes first so that the input tax credit can be allowed. Second proviso to Section 16(2) of the CGST Act clearly provides that the entire value of supply (with tax) is to be paid within 180 days from the date of issue of invoice. Therefore, as long as the entire payment is made within 180 days, the recipient would be entitled to claim the credit in full. Assuming that only part payment is made within 180 days, availing of proportionate credit based on such part payment is not provided for under the CGST law and thus, would be subject to litigation.

  • Finance Minister Arun Jaitley today introduced a bill to repeal SBI (Subsidiary Banks) Act and State Bank of Hyderabad Act following the merger of five associates with the parent SBI.
