Quick Summary
Financial Credit Notes (post-sale discounts) don't impact GST if no tax adjustment is made by the supplier. GST applies on original value; ITC remains intact. No extra GST liability arises-only accounting profit is affected.

The CBIC clarified in Circular No. 92/11/2019-GST that secondary discounts (post-sale) can be issued via financial credit notes without any GST reversal required by the recipient, as long as the supplier doesn't reduce their own tax liability.

GST is payable on the original transaction value.
The financial credit note without GST does not affect GST liability or ITC.

Output GST = 171
Input GST = 180
Net ITC credit = Rs. 9

No additional GST liability arises.
