Quick Summary

07 February 2026 Sir / Madam,
Our Company has owned one Ground Mounted Solar Plant and get commissioned the plant in the year 2023. While procurement GST rate was 70% of project cost @12% tax and 30% of project cost @18%. And we claimed and utilized the ITC. We are utilizing the full power units generation to our textile unit(Group Captive). Now we propose to sell the entire plant. Kindly advise us what is the correct GST tax rate

Query No 1:
whether 70% of the project cost @5% ( present solar modules tax rate is reduced to 5%) and remaining project cost (30% )@ 18% or

for entire project @ 5% tax rate as it is used and old.

Query No 2:
Kindly advise us whether our understanding is correct or not. While selling the plant we should have to reverse the ITC proportion distributed to 60 months as we are going to sell the plant within 5 years.

Kindly clarify that

whether we have to reverse the ITC proportion or no need to reverse the ITC we claimed on the project.

A lot of Thanks in advance,

With warm regards,
Bazeer L

ITC reversal is not automatic — you must pay higher of GST on sale value or ITC attributable to remaining useful life (out of 60 months).
