27 August 2018 The asses see is taking input tax credit based on supplier invoice, actual receipt of materials, acceptance of quality and rate as per their Purchase order and also raising goods receipt note / material receipt note.

If the supplier fails to file their GSTR 1 or wrongly mentions receiver GST Number or their invoice no date, qty and amount , it will not be reflected in GSTR 2 A of the recipient. The recipient is also informing the discrepancies to the supplier through mail after checking GSTR 2A and even then supplier fails to Rectify the discrepancy, whether recipient credit will be disallowed by the department?

in this section referred to as the “recipient”) for a tax period shall, in such manner and within

corresponding registered person (hereafter in this section referred to as the “supplier”)
in his valid return for the same tax period or any preceding tax period;
