Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether RCM payments for FY 2019-20, specifically for transportation services, can be made now with credit availment. While RCM can be paid, claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) for that period is problematic due to Section 16(4) of the GST Act. The eligibility of ITC also depends on the nature of the transport service; for instance, 'rent-a-cab' services typically do not qualify for ITC.

RCM can be paid but claim of ITC will not be allowed

It is a disputed one as section 16(4) comes in the way so ITC of RCM paid now of 2019-20 is unlikely to be available.

Hi Reddy,
Please check the time of supply and pay RCM liability along with interest. Please note that ITC can be claimed on the RCM paid, if it is eligible under GST. Here, it is ITC related to transportation so if it is rent a cab services then ITC is not eligible.
