Key Provisions on Rule 86B under the GST Regime :
GST Rule 86B is a measure to ensure that registered persons with significant taxable supplies make a minimum cash payment of their output tax liability, reducing the scope for fraudulent ITC claims and increasing tax compliance.
Rule 86B is a new rule introduced under the GST regime that restricts the use of input tax credit (ITC) available in the electronic credit ledger for paying the output tax liability. This rule is applicable to registered persons who have a taxable value of supply (other than exempt supply and zero-rated supply) in a month exceeding Rs. 50 lakh. According to this rule, such persons cannot use more than 99% of their ITC balance to discharge their output tax liability, and they have to pay at least 1% of their output tax liability in cash. This rule is aimed at preventing tax evasion and fraud by unscrupulous taxpayers who claim fake ITC and do not pay any tax in cash.
The rule 86B is to be checked on the basis of the GST returns of the firm, not the ITR of the firm or the directors
