You can now file a rectification application to claim pending input tax credit; However, there is a catch

Good news for GST registered taxpayers who filed GSTR-3B to claim pending input tax credit (ITC) for FY 17-18, 18-19, 19-20 and 20-21 but were prevented from claiming it due to due date related issues. Many of these taxpayers received GST demand notice because they did not file GSTR-3B return on or before the deadline. As per the GST law ITC can’t be claimed without filing GSTR-3B return. One issue led to another. Without getting the benefit of ITC their final output tax liability increased unnecessarily.

GST taxpayers can’t claim pending input tax credit if GSTR 3B is not filed by this date for FY 2023-24

If you are a GST registered taxpayer and want to claim any pending ITC for FY 2023-24 or amend any errors or omissions under GST then note the last date to do so is November 30, 2024. If you miss this opportunity, then you may lose out on claiming ITC if any remains to be claimed for FY 2023-24. Needless to say, if you do not get the benefit of claiming input tax credit then it will result in loss as you can’t offset your output tax liability with input tax credit.
