A trader purchases directly from the manufacturer, the manufacturer charges excise duty as well as VAT in the invoice. Till now the dealer used to take credit of VAT and excise duty was treated as an expense. In GST Whether the person will be eligible to avail credit of the excise duty.. if yes under which section and what all conditions have to be fulfilled ? 

 

Thanks in advance
