Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the rules for setting off Goods and Services Tax (GST) credits. It confirms that CGST and SGST credits cannot be set off against each other. IGST credit must be used first for IGST, then CGST, SGST, and UTGST. Similarly, CGST credit is used for IGST and UTGST, and SGST credit for IGST and UTGST of the same state. UTGST follows the same rules as SGST and cannot be offset against CGST.
