ITC on GST paid under RCM without tax invoice

Suppose ABC Limited has taken a service from XYZ Limited and this service is qualified under Reverse Charge. XYZ Limited has not provided any tax invoice to ABC Limited. Now the issue is:

i) ABC Limited has to discharge tax liability under RCM but it cannot taken ITC since tax invoice has not been issued by M/s XYZ Limited. This is a loss to M/s ABC since they might not be able to avail ITC even if they have discharged GST liability under RCM

 

ii) If M/s ABC opts not to discharge liability under RCM then will it be a non compliance for them

 

I request all experts to provide their valuable opinion in this matter.
