FAQ :

The notification clarifies the mechanism for verifying compliance with Section 15(3)(b)(ii) of the CGST Act, 2017, regarding the reversal of input tax credit by recipients when suppliers issue credit notes for discounts after a supply.

It addresses the condition that for discounts offered via credit notes after supply, the taxable value is not reduced unless the recipient reverses the input tax credit attributable to that discount.

There was no facility on the common portal for suppliers or tax officers to verify whether recipients had reversed the input tax credit attributable to discounts provided through credit notes.

A suitable mechanism is being introduced to enable suppliers and tax officers to verify the fulfilment of the condition regarding the proportionate reversal of input tax credit by recipients.

It is addressed to the Principal Chief Commissioners/Chief Commissioners/Principal Commissioners/Commissioners of Central Tax and Principal Directors General/Directors General.
