Creditor writeoff

Quick Summary

This discussion explores whether Input Tax Credit (ITC) needs to be reversed when a creditor write-off is recognised as income in the profit and loss account. The consensus suggests that ITC reversal is only mandatory for actual write-offs, not for provisions or partial write-offs. The timing of the write-off relative to the financial year is also a consideration.

20 January 2024 Under GST, the requirement to reverse ITC arises only in case of actual write off. No ITC reversal is required where goods have been partially written off and provision to write off is made.
