IGST ITC Uitilization

What is the current practice for Utilization of IGST ITC as per the regulations of the Act?

Is it that it has to be utilized against CGST First and then the balance against SGST after utilization against IGST Liability??

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the correct procedure for utilising Input Tax Credit (ITC) on Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST). It addresses whether IGST ITC must first be used against CGST before SGST, or if it can be directly offset against IGST liability. The conversation points to Section 49(5) of the CGST Act and Rule 88A as key regulations governing this process, potentially superseding earlier GST circulars.

As per amendment act the order of utilization after the setoff of IGST liability was compulsory CGST and then SGST/UGST

So whether the stated amendment mentioned by you overwrites the GST circular no. 98/17/2019.

If yes, then request you to provide us the link of amended act. It would be really helpful.

Thanks for the revert!

Rule 88A-Check this I think it is prior to circular no. 98/17/2019..
Sec 49(5) cgst act, Rule 88A; very simple
