22 February 2020My CGST payable 2560.00 and SGST payable 2560.00. I have IGST input 4095.00 and CGST input earlier 4084.00. when I went to payment set off total payable automatically shown only SGST Rs. 1025.00. My question is if I settled manually Total SGST with IGST input and balance IGST (4095-2560) = 1535 with CGST then my payable will be Nil. But system did not admitted to do that. Why?

| First Set off IGST liability with IGST ITC | ||||||
| Then use balance IGST ITC to set off CGST/SGST | ||||||
| Basically, you first have to exhaust IGST ITC | ||||||
| Only restriction is that CGST ITC cannot be used to set off SGST liability or vice-versa | ||||||

Remaining amount of IGST credit may be utilized for payment of CGST or SGST in any order.
Though I haven’t faced this manual set-off yet practically. But I think as per law, this process of set-off holds good.
