12 April 2017Dear CAClubian,
Greetings!!
I have query regarding Service tax and vat migration in GST. For supposed that someone has to be liability in service tax along with has Input credit more than its service tax liability, So in this scenario, let me know that Its service tax liability can be set off by Vat Input credit at the time of GST apply.
Thanks for the anticipated response.
With Best Regards

No, it cannot be done. Service Tax liability shall be paid in cash before GST implementation. Extra VAT credit shall be taken in GST as SGST credit. Later it can be used to pay SGST or IGST as needed.

Once the GST is in force -The service tax liability would be CGST liability & VAT input Credit would be SGST Credit .
Credit Setoff Rules as per DRAFT is as under-
IGST payments can be set off against –Credit of IGST, CGST, SGST
CGST payments can be set off against –Credit of IGST and CGST
SGST payments can be set off against – Credit of IGST and SGST .
Conclusion : Setoff would not be possible.
