Question-1 [ICAI-I-Ch9-Q2]

Mr. A has deposited a sum of Rs.30,000 under minor head of “Interest” column for the major head “IGST”. At the time of filing GSTR-3B for a particular tax period, he noticed that there is no sufficient amount under the minor head ‘Tax’ towards payment of Rs.30,000. When approached with the Jurisdictional Tax officer, Mr. A was guided to deposit the tax amount under proper head of account and claim a refund for the remittance of amount deposited under head ”interest”. Examine the relevant provisions of CGST Act, 2017 towards payment of tax and compliance with the law.

Answer

Provisions of Section 49(10) of CGST Act, 2017 permit a registered person for transferring the amount deposited under any of the minor head i.e. tax, interest, penalty, fees or others to any of the heads under IGST/CGST/SGST/UTGS and make payment of taxes there upon. Accordingly, Mr. A need not deposit the tax amount under head “tax” and claim a refund for the remittance of amount deposited under head ”interest. Rather, using the Form GST PMT09, such amount can be transferred suo-moto on the common portal from “interest” to “tax” head and tax liability be paid.

 

Question-2 [ICMAI-I-D19-1(c)(v)-1]

A registered person may transfer any amount of tax, interest, penalty or any other amount available in Electronic Cash Ledger to Electronic Cash Ledger for IGST, CGST or UTGST or cess. [T/F]

Question-3 [ICAI-I-N22-7(b)(i)-3]

Pranesh has deposited a sum of Rs.5,000 under the head of ‘Fee’ column of Cess and Rs.4,000 was lying unutilized under the head of ‘Penalty’ column of IGST. Both the deposits were made wrongly instead of depositing under the head of Fee column under SGST.

In the light of the provisions of section 49(10) & 49(11) of the CGST Act, 2017, briefly explain the relevant provisions as how can Pranesh rectify these errors?

Answer

A registered person is allowed to make intra-head or inter-head transfer of amount, as available in electronic cash ledger, using specified form. It can transfer any amount of tax, interest, penalty, fee or others, under one (major or minor) head to another (major or minor) head, as available in the electronic cash ledger.

Therefore, in the given case, amount of Rs.5,000 available under minor head ‘fee’ of major head ‘cess’ and Rs.4,000 available under minor head ‘penalty’ of major head ‘IGST’ can be transferred to minor head ‘fee’ of major head ‘SGST’ using specified form.

 

Question-4 [ICSI-P-D21-O-5(d)-3]

A registered person who has paid central tax and state tax or UT tax, as the case may be, on a transaction considered by him to be an intra-state supply, but which is subsequently held to be an inter-state supply. Does he adjust the GST amount which is paid by him under wrong head ? Is any interest is liable on the amount of IGST payable?

Answer

Section 77 of the Central Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017

A taxable person who had paid tax in error is entitled to refund only after the discharge of the correct tax due so that the incorrect tax paid due to wrong classification of tax, reflects on the common portal as “paid in excess”. In this case, suo moto adjustment is not permissible.

Further, As per Section 19 of Integrated Goods and Services Tax Act, 2017, No interest is payable on such IGST paid due to payment of CGST, SGST/UTGST on transactions which later was held as interstate.

Question-2 [ICAI-I-N18-12(c)(ii)-3] [Output tax does not include tax payable under RCM]

Ms. Jimmy wants to adjust input tax credit for payment of interest, penalty and payment of tax under reverse charge. Explain whether she can do so.

Answer

The input tax credit as self-assessed in the return of a registered person shall be credited to his electronic credit ledger which may be used for making any payment towards output tax.

“Output tax” inter alia excludes tax payable on reverse charge basis.

Thus, Ms. Jimmy cannot adjust input tax credit for payment of interest, penalty as also for payment of tax under reverse charge.

 

Question-2A [ICAI-I-Ch9-Q10]

Suhasini is a registered software consultant. On account of her ill health, she could not provide any services during the month of October. However, she had to incur all the expenses relating to her office. She paid Rs.75,000 to various vendors. The total input tax involved on the goods and services procured by her is Rs.13,500. Out of the total bills paid by her, one bill for Rs.15,000 relates to security services availed for security of her office, tax on which is payable under reverse charge. Input tax involved in such bill is Rs.2,700.

Suhasini is of the opinion that for the month of October, no GST is payable from electronic cash ledger as she has sufficient balance of ITC for payment of GST under reverse charge on security services.

Do you think Suhasini is right? Explain with reasons.

Answer

The amount available in the electronic credit ledger, i.e. ITC may be used for making any payment towards output tax [Section 49(4)]. Output tax in relation to a taxable person, means the tax chargeable on taxable supply of goods or services or both made by him or by his agent but excludes tax payable by him on reverse charge basis [Section 2(82)].

Therefore, ITC cannot be used to pay the tax liability under reverse charge. The same is always required to be paid through electronic cash ledger and not electronic credit ledger. Thus, Suhasini is wrong and she will need to pay the GST of ` 2,700 on security service through electronic cash ledger.
