Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether excess SGST Input Tax Credit (ITC) can be used to offset CGST liabilities, particularly when closing a business. According to GST regulations (Section 49B and Rule 88A), SGST ITC cannot be directly adjusted against CGST liability. However, it can be utilised against IGST liability if there are inter-state sales.

Why did itc have excess or due in cgst? r u exporter?
Cannot be adjusted.
No you cannot adust CGST balance against SGST .

(Reference : Section 49B R/w rule 88A , Circular 98/17/2019 GST)

SGST ITC cannot be offset against CGST liability. If you can have an inter-state sale transaction, SGST credit can be adjusted against IGST liability.
