Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether businesses can claim input tax credit (ITC) for GST paid under the Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) on Goods Transport Agency (GTA) services. The consensus is that ITC is claimable, provided the recipient is not a composition dealer and the service is used for business purposes. The credit should be reported in GSTR-3B under the relevant RCM section.
Where the GTS is not eligible to take ITC for the supplies effected by it and the liability under GST is discharged under reverse charge basis, the receipient of GTA service discharging the tax liability is entitled to take ITC of the amount of tax paid under reverse charge provided it is used.
