if taxable value 100
discount showed in invoice 10
the GST charge on Rs.90
And if company allowed discount at the time of amount received from customers and not showed in invoice the GST charge on 100/-

Raise the Credit note along with GST to the extent of discount....However for the month end transaction, there will be cash flow effect...

if you are raise credit Note then You can reverse itc

@ Sharukh

I did't understand why supplier needs to reverse the ITC on raising of Credit note. Can you please explain your view

sir I'm used word ITC from Customers point of view

Ok...Yes customer needs to reverse the credit as per the Credit note issued by the supplier

Consdering the above example only.
Total invoice value including gst is ₹100 and Invoice value after cash discount is ₹ 90 and this is the amount paid by me.
My question is do I need to reverse ITC corresponding to ₹10 i.e Cash discount.
P.S: cash discount is mentioned in invoice.

If the cash discount is mentioned in the invoice then, GST needs to be paid on Rs.90. 

For Example:   Invoice value      Rs. 100

                        (-) Cash discount  Rs. 10

                       Net invoice value   Rs. 90

                     CGST & SGST ( for ex; 12% ) 10.8

                      Total Invoice value     Rs. 100.8

Thanks Vinod ji for showing interest and answering my query.

My purchase invoice is actually like this:

Total taxable amount: ₹ 89.29
cgst+sgst (for ex. 12%) = ₹ 10.71
Total amount= ₹ 100
cash discount
(if paid with 10 days from invoice date) = ₹10.
Net amount payable
(if paid with in 10 days from invoice date) =
₹100 - ₹10 = ₹90

First thing the GST liability computation method is wrong in that...Because GST is not required to pay on discount value.

If the invoice is issuing like that then supplier has to pay GST of Rs.10.71 out of Rs. 90 .. and the vendor is eligible for the credit of Rs.9.6 ..because if the vendor does't pay the Rs.10 with in 180 days from the date of invoice( discount )..

thanks
