GST Registration & ITC Eligibility

We are registered in Telangana state, while providing services and supplies all over India. We procure high-value goods from across India and ship them to the same state. We request all suppliers to provide IGST tax invoices, even if the shipping is within the state.

For example, we procure a pole worth 10 lakhs from a vendor in Delhi, who raises the invoice as follows: billed to Telangana state and shipped to Delhi state. Since the invoice is billed to Telangana, the tax treatment will be IGST, and we are availing ITC on this bill. We follow this process with all our suppliers and vendors.

Is this method compliant with GST laws and we continue without GST registration in other states ?

Can we claim ITC on all purchases from all over India if the tax type is mentioned correctly ?

Requesting all to provide your valuable inputs. 
Our auditors confirmed to proceed as it is without registration.

Dear Dilipkumar,

Your approach to invoicing and ITC eligibility aligns with GST laws to an extent but requires careful consideration. In your example, where the invoice is billed to Telangana but the goods are shipped to Delhi, IGST is correctly charged as it qualifies as an inter-state transaction. However, if the goods are both shipped and consumed within the same state, the applicable tax should be CGST and SGST. While you may not require GST registration in other states if you do not have a physical establishment there, it is essential to periodically review your compliance to ensure adherence to GST regulations.

For a deeper understanding of Input Tax Credit (ITC) and its eligibility criteria, including the importance of accurate invoicing and tax treatment, you may find this guide helpful: What is Input Tax Credit?.
