To a query "Itc refund for e commerce sellers" posted on 14th Jan 2019, (please click on this link to see the original query and answers provided by experts - "https://www.caclubindia.com/experts/itc-refund-for-e-commerce-sellers-2713454.asp" ), experts mentioned that it is not possible to claim refund.

However, I guess, the intention of person asking this query was, whether seller or actual supplier could use this available credit at the time of discharge of tax liability (his GST liability)?".. that means, though seller is not able to claim refund, can he/she use this credit to set off his tax liability (his GST liability) ? (please be noted that this query is not about utilizing TCS/TDS credits).
As per my knowledge, every seller is utilizing this available credit amount to set of their GST tax liability. Kindly clarify. Thanks in advance.

I gave him a COPY of RENTAL agreement .But he is stressing on Originals.
He says that he will be reject the application oi original documents are not submitted . Can GST registration application be cancelled on this ground?????

Please reply asap

Whether RCM is applicable if a body corporate pays to its Pure Agent , the amount which has been incurred by the pure agent for Rent a Cab service.

Whether RCM is applicable if a body corporate uses UBER, OLA services ( Taxi Service ) as these are E commerce operators.or the liability to pay the GST is still comes under E commerce operator.

A vehicle is hired by govt.office but cost of fuel is borne by the govt.office.The owner of vehicle I.e supplier is unregistered.Shall the govt.office liable to pay gst @5% under RCM?The govt.office has gstin as a tax deductor.

After validation and even after attaching DSC. There is Error while filing " Invalid Summary Payload ".
If it is an error is should be a validation error and should be detected in offline utility.
Now GST Grievance after raising query for 5 times on the fifth time gave this solution...

Dear taxpayer, your issue for "Invalid summary payload" is a genuine error. This error comes when you enter columns values of length 14 (digits) and Decimal digits or 15 (digits),2(Decimal digits) and sub totals having 14,2 or 15,2 length. You are requested to enter values less than 14 digits and decimal value don't enter please rectify your decimal values , enter the round figure in editable columns. And then you can check and try filing form now. Please raise another ticket if you face any other issue. Thanks, Team GSTN.


I found that there are two digit decimals. I removed and rounded off. However auto populated digits having two digit decimals cannot be changed. Still error exists.
Column length including Rs symbol and comma exceeds 15 digit. But of course I cannot change 10 crore to 1 crore just to fit in the column.

Please help.
