GSTIN has notified stricter ITC reconciliation rules under Rule 37A. Taxpayers must ensure that their GSTR-2B and books of accounts match to avoid disallowance of ITC claims.
Starting April 2024, the Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTIN) is implementing stricter rules for Input Tax Credit (ITC) reconciliation under the newly introduced Rule 37A. It will be mandatory for taxpayers to align their GSTR-2B statements precisely with their books of accounts. Discrepancies could lead to immediate disallowance of ITC claims and potential notices from the tax department. Robust internal auditing and timely vendor communication are now essential.
