Quick Summary
A client is facing an issue with their GST TRAN 1 credit, where they claimed input tax credit (ITC) of ₹4,60,000 which was carried forward but not utilised. Following advice, they reversed this ITC. However, GST authorities are now demanding interest on this amount. The discussion clarifies that interest is applicable as per Section 50 of the CGST Act, as the law refers to the 'claim' of ITC, not its 'utilisation'. Additionally, Circular 58/32/2018 GST mandates reversal with interest and penalty for wrongly claimed ITC in TRAN 1.

Yes the interest applicable .
1. As per Section 50 of CGST Act , interest is applicable if person CLAIM of input tax credit. here its not written " UTILISED" , so even though it is not utilised , the Applicability of interest is attracted.

2. In term of Circular 58/32/2018 GST , clearly prescribed that any wrongly claim ITC in tran 1 , need to be Reverse with Interest & penalty.
Noted with many thanks....
