Hi Niyati,
Thanks for sharing this important update!
To summarize the key points on Rectification Applications under Notification No. 22/2024-CT dated 08/10/2024:
-
Taxpayers can file rectification applications only for certain past FYs:
-
2017-18
-
2018-19
-
2019-20
-
2020-21
-
Applicable only when orders were passed under these sections:
-
Section 73 (Demand and recovery in case of non-payment or short payment of tax)
-
Section 74 (Demand and recovery in case of fraud, willful misstatement)
-
Section 107 (Appeals to Appellate Authority)
-
Section 108 (Appeals to Appellate Tribunal)
-
The demand must have been raised or confirmed due to a violation of Section 16(4).
Section 16(4) is about reversal of input tax credit (ITC) in certain cases, e.g., when the supplier doesn’t pay the tax to the government.
Practical implication:
If you have GST demands/orders relating to ITC reversal under Section 16(4) from the mentioned years and sections, you can now file rectification applications to correct or adjust those demands.
