Eligibility of Input Tax credit

This discussion explores the eligibility of claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) for payments made under Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) prior to the GST commencement date of 1st July 2017. While some advise that ITC is available if tax was paid under RCM and carried forward via forms like TRAN-1, others argue it's not permissible. The consensus leans towards the possibility of claiming ITC, provided the tax was paid and potentially carried forward from previous tax regimes, with suggestions to consult the GST office if deadlines have passed.
