CMA Intermediate · Direct and Indirect Taxation · Input Tax Credit

An ISD has Rs 1,20,000 of eligible credit on a common input service attributable to all three recipients having the same PAN. Relevant-period turnovers are: R1 Rs 50 lakh, R2 Rs 30 lakh, R3 Rs 20 lakh, all operational in the current year. What credit goes to R2?

R2 receives Rs 36,000. Under the Rule 39(1)(f) formula, the credit is C x t1/T, which is 1,20,000 x 30/100, with turnover of all recipients totalling Rs 100 lakh. Equal sharing is not the prescribed method.

  2. BRs 40,000
  3. CRs 30,000
  4. DRs 60,000

Explanation

Under Rule 39(1)(e) and (f), C1 = (t1/T) x C. T = 50 + 30 + 20 = Rs 100 lakh. R2 = (30/100) x 1,20,000 = Rs 36,000. Rs 40,000 would come from equal distribution, which the rule does not provide.
