This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

A service provider issued bills in late 2017 and early 2018, paying GST on them. The client is now ready to pay but wants new bills as the old ones weren't accounted for. The provider is asking if they can reverse the GST paid on the old bills or get a waiver on new ones. Unfortunately, the time limit for issuing credit notes has passed, and there's no provision for reversing GST paid by the supplier or linking old bills for a waiver.

13 February 2020 Hello. I have raised 2 bills on my client for designing services provided, the first bill was in December 2017 and the 2nd bill was in January 2018. I have paid CGST @ 9% and SGST @ 9% on the bills. The bills have remained unpaid till now. After much chasing and persuasion, the client has now agreed to pay the amount. But he wants me to issue him new bills, the reason is given that they had not accounted for the bills at that time and the officer involved has left the organization and he had not submitted the bills to the management. Can I claim GST reversal on my old bills or waiver on the new bills by linking them?

17 February 2020 Credit Note could have been issued. But in your case, time limit to issue a credit note is over for 2017-18.
Reversal of GST paid by supplier / linking for such a waiver is not available.
