Reverse charge Input!

This discussion clarifies why input tax credit for Reverse Charge Mechanism (RCM) is typically claimed in the following month. Key reasons include the need to issue a self-invoice, file it in GSTR1, and have the tax reflected in your GSTR 2A/2B. Additionally, the actual payment of RCM tax to the government and the vendor's own invoicing and return filing also contribute to this timing. This applies when you receive goods or services subject to RCM.
