Gst itc for stock in hand

SSG (1936 Points)

29 December 2017  

A taxpayer, not registered under earlier tax regime, took GST No. on 10th Sep. 2017. The closing stock on 9th Sep. 2017 has stock on which he has paid GST (from July 1 to Sep. 9 2017). Will he be able to claim the ITC of GST paid on stock in hand as on 9th Sep. 2017? If yes, which forms to file for it and what is the procedure. Kindly avise.
