Sir, We had an export sale of Rs. 1 crore, and the customer subsequently became insolvent. We filed a claim with ECGC and received Rs. 80 lakhs as compensation, resulting in a financial loss of Rs. 20 lakhs.
Our query is as follows: Are we required to reverse the Input Tax Credit (ITC) claimed on raw materials used in manufacturing the goods for export, corresponding to the loss of Rs. 20 lakhs? How does this situation affect GST compliance, and what is the reversal impact, if any, under GST law? We seek clarification on the appropriate treatment of ITC and GST in this scenario.
