ITC on Motor Vehicles............. Just sharing a thought

Can a Registered Person take ITC on the following vehicles? Which of them are blocked Credits as per Section 17(5) of CGST Act, 2017.

1. Car................ used as car..... used for Travelling...

2. Car.................. used for carrying goods like cash carrying vans, for carrying Jewellery etc...

3. Goods Vehicle............... for Transportation of Goods

4. Goods Vehicle............... used for both Transportation of Goods and Persons.

5. Multi Utility Vehicles............ which is designed to carry both Goods and Persons.

6. JCB, and Other Vehicles............. which are not usable for Transportation of Goods and Passengers.....



Virtual Hearing made mandatory in GST

 CBIC had issued Instruction (Instruction Number : F.No: 390/Misc/3/2019-JC, dated 21.08.2020).

As per this Instruction, Personal Hearing for adjudication and appeal shall be conducted in virtual mode only. It is made mandatory.....

So, we can expect personal hearing in virtual mode ( like google Meet....)

A new era starts in GST.......... the Virtual mode!!


Composition Scheme in GST ......... may Looks very simple ...... but it is not so simple as you think ...

Composition Scheme comes with lot of conditions .......... Read the law many times........... Don't take it lightly......

If you opt the Composition Scheme by mistake....... There is a huge tax liability... it is unimaginable !!!

It is my rough estimate that many tax payers have opted composition Scheme by mistake....... They are going to get Scrutiny Notices...... Be vigilant always !
