C/N is usually issued by the supplier to record sales return, reduction in value etc. 1) If the supplier issues C/N after the time limit, then GST liability of the supplier cannot be reversed. In other words, the supplier, in effect, can only issue financial credit note 2) Since, the liability cannot be reversed, no interest is applicable 3) The recipient would have already claimed ITC on the basis of original invoice and on issue of such financial C/N, ITC is not required to be reversed by the recipient.
