Regarding ITC Adjusment


This query is : Resolved 

Quick Summary
If a supplier uploads an invoice in GSTR-1 but the recipient forgets to claim the Input Tax Credit (ITC), it can still be claimed in the following month's GSTR-3B. This is permissible under Section 16(4) and Rule 36(4) of the CGST Act. The crucial condition is that the supplier must have furnished the invoice details in their GSTR-1. The deadline for claiming such ITC is generally by the September return of the following financial year or the annual return filing date, whichever is earlier.
