Status of your last quarter (apr-jun) service tax return.. Do you have excess credit?
if yes it is allowed.
no credit is not allowed as credit in service tax is available only if it is paid in cash and in this case payment made in the month of July.
So, as per service tax, credit can be availed in july and their is no mechanism to take credit of service tax in july
please mention the section number under which either we can take credit or we can't take credit. It's not mentioned in section 140 of GST act.
no it is not mentioned in cgst act rather it is stated in service tax that credit of rcm is taken only in the month in which payment is made i.e. july but for the month of july for return for service tax is filed.
So practically you can't take credit
