This discussion clarifies the new GST set off rules, particularly concerning the utilisation of input tax credits (ITC) for IGST, CGST, and SGST liabilities. It explains the priority order for set off: IGST ITC is used first against IGST liability, followed by CGST ITC, and then SGST ITC. If any IGST liability remains after utilising all available credits, it must be paid in cash. The thread also addresses how to utilise SGST credit when IGST and CGST liabilities are already set off, confirming it can be carried forward for future use with no time limit.
