Under the Goods and Services Tax (GST) regime, input tax credit (ITC) allows registered businesses to claim a credit for the GST paid on inputs or input services used in the course of business. However, there are certain conditions and restrictions for claiming ITC, including the treatment of available stock.
If your client has voluntarily registered for GST, they may be eligible to claim ITC on the available stock held on the date of registration. The conditions for claiming ITC on available stock are as follows:
Registered within 30 days: Your client must have registered for GST within 30 days from the date they became liable to obtain registration. If the registration is done within this timeframe, they may be eligible to claim ITC on available stock.
Eligible goods and services: ITC can be claimed only on eligible inputs, input services, and capital goods. These goods and services must have been used or intended to be used for taxable supplies.
Documented stock: Your client should have valid documents such as invoices, bills of supply, or other prescribed documents for the inputs or goods in their possession on the date of registration.
Proof of payment: Your client should have evidence of payment of GST on the stock available on the date of registration. This proof could include invoices or other relevant documents.
Stock transfer: If your client was previously unregistered and the available stock is transferred from their unregistered business to the newly registered business, they can claim ITC on the transferred stock.
It is important to note that specific rules and procedures for claiming ITC on available stock may vary across jurisdictions. Therefore, it is advisable to review the GST laws and regulations applicable in your client's jurisdiction and consult with a qualified professional, such as a tax advisor or a chartered accountant, for accurate and personalized guidance based on the specific circumstances.
