Quick Summary
This discussion addresses how to claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) that was missed in previous GST filing periods. It clarifies that eligible ITC can be claimed before filing the annual return or during the September GSTR-3B filing. The 5% restriction on ITC availability in GSTR-2A is explained, noting it only applies when suppliers haven't uploaded their invoices. If invoices are uploaded, the full eligible credit can be claimed in the current month's return.

In case the supplier uploaded all invoices it is an eligible credit and 5% restriction is not applicable on it. It supplier haven't uploaded the invoice then only restriction of 5% is applicable

GSTR-2A is a dynamic return it keeps on changing as and when your ssupplier files GSTR-1. Further the said restriction of 5% is over the ITC available in GSTR-2A. Therefore the ITC missed by you in the prev month can rightly be claimed in current month.
