Can the service tax paid under reverse charge mechanism for the month of June 2017 on 6th July 2017 be availed as service tax credit under transition provision of GST?
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
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
