Post supply credit note on account of discount

"A" is manufacturer and supply goods to "X" on wholesale price less Pre-defined Trade Discount & Cash Discount at time of supply and reduces the same in the TAX INVOICE itself and charged GST on reduced value of goods.

"X" made payment of the Invoice on due dates.

Subsequently based on the total supply of goods, "A" issue Credit Notes towards Discount called as Quantity Discount/Incentives etc. without mentioning any GST on the said value and paid through Cheque/DD/RTGS/NEFT to "X" or even allowed "X" to deduct the value of Credit Notes from future payables.

My Question is :

What is the treatement of this Credit Note in the hands of "A" as well as in the hand of "X" under GST Act?

Replies (4)
"A" could reduce his outward tax liability by way of said credit note (would have been issued with GST) provided recipient of credit note must have reduce his ITC.

Thank you Ash*t Sharma for your opinion, But in my question itself I have mentioned that "A" has issued Credit Note without mentioning any GST.

Is there any violation of GST law in it ? "A" has not reduced his GST Liability nor "X" has reversed ITC on account of such Credit Note. There is no impact of Revenue as well.

is there any section or rule under GST which prescribe the same. Can you quote the same
