09 March 2026 We have a brass purchase bill dated Feb-2026 in which 18% GST is applicable, but the supplier party has reported the bill on the GST portal with 28% GST. In that case, can we claim ITC of 28%?

09 March 2026 You cannot claim ITC of 28% just because the supplier uploaded the invoice with that rate. Legally, ITC is restricted to the tax actually charged in accordance with law (18% in this case), and any excess tax paid by the supplier (28%) is not eligible for ITC. The supplier must correct the invoice or amend their GST return to align with the correct rate.

09 March 2026 Restrict your claim: Only claim the 18% GST as per your purchase bill in your GSTR-3B.
Contact the supplier: Ask them to amend the invoice in their next GSTR-1 filing to reflect the correct 18% rate.
Monitor GSTR-2B: Once the supplier amends the entry, ensure the corrected amount reflects in your future GSTR-2B statement.
