Quick Summary
This discussion concerns a pharmacy retail business that failed to file GSTR-3B and GSTR-1 for FY 2017-18. Despite later filing annual returns and claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) with late fees, the department issued a notice under Section 16(4) deeming the ITC ineligible due to time limits. The user seeks clarification on whether this ITC claim is valid or if it has lapsed, given the claim was made for the same period but filed much later.

If claiming of ITC has lapsed as per time limit prescribed in section 16(4) then you cannot claim ITC.

ITC was claimed same period but filling is 2021 November,is there option to claim such itc or it’s a wrong claim?

I didn’t find under section 16(4)
