A dealer purchased goods that were later rejected due to poor quality. The seller failed to remove the material, leading to it becoming unusable. The question is whether a debit note can be issued now, reversing the GST. The advice confirms that a debit note can be issued, but if the Input Tax Credit (ITC) was already utilised without payment, it must be reversed with interest.

Dear sir : One of my dealer purchased material for Rs.3,00,000 in January 20. Material was rejected due to bad quality. Seller was informed accordingly. He did not remove the material and it became weathered and ultimately became non usable. Can I issue a debit note in current date by reversing GST ... kindly advise.... Regards.. Pardeep kapil

Yes, you can issue debit note. But if you already utilized the ITC (without payment of consideration), then you have to reverse the same with interest. If you require any clarification, please contact me on nine nine zero one eight four one one five zero.
