29 December 2015 The set off will be available from the with effect date (w.e.f.) of the registration number. The application will come with effect from the date of application i.e.date on which the application is uploaded. So set-off can be availed during the pre registration period provided your date of registration is before the date on which set off is claimed i.e.your application should not be rejected.
