No Reversal of ITC on financial credit note in relation to post sale discount


Quick Summary
The Andhra Pradesh AAR ruled that businesses can claim full Input Tax Credit (ITC) on GST charged by suppliers, even when financial or commercial credit notes are issued later for post-sale discounts. The ruling clarified that ITC reversal is not required if the credit notes don't impact the original transaction value and aren't linked to specific invoices as per Section 15(3)(b) of the CGST Act. This decision provides clarity that buyers can retain full GST credit, provided there's no misuse of credit notes.
