ITC for different financial years can be clubbed together for claiming refund under Rule 89(4) of the CGST Rules


Quick Summary
The Bombay High Court has ruled that businesses can combine Input Tax Credit (ITC) from different financial years when claiming refunds under Rule 89(4) of the CGST Rules. This decision follows a case where a company was initially ordered to repay a sanctioned refund. The court referenced Circular 135/05/2020-GST, which clarifies that restrictions on grouping refund claims across financial years do not apply. Consequently, the earlier order against the company was set aside, and the appeal was to be reconsidered.
