ITC not taken in GSTR3B

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If you filed a Nil return for GSTR-3B and therefore couldn't claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) that appeared in GSTR-2B, there's generally no immediate issue. The unclaimed ITC will remain available for future returns as long as it continues to show in your GSTR-2B. However, if you consistently fail to claim it in future periods, the ITC may eventually lapse, and while not directly penalised, inaccurate reporting could lead to departmental scrutiny.

22 March 2025 No issue as such. If the ITC showing in GSTR-2B is not being claimed in GSTR-3B (because of a NIL return), the ITC will not be utilized for that period. However, the ITC will still be available in future returns, provided the GSTR-2B still shows the credit in later periods.

22 March 2025 No. It will lapse..
While not claiming ITC itself may not directly incur penalties, failing to report accurate figures or incorrectly handling ITC claims for longer periods can lead to tax audits or queries from department.
