CA Intermediate · Taxation · Input Tax Credit

Meera Enterprises supplies taxable goods and also exempt goods. In a month, its common input tax credit (not specifically attributable) is Rs 60,000, and it has no blocked credits. Turnover: taxable Rs 8,00,000 and exempt Rs 2,00,000 (aggregate turnover Rs 10,00,000). Ignoring other adjustments, the ITC eligible on the common credit is:

Eligible ITC is Rs 48,000. Common credit must be apportioned between taxable and exempt supplies by turnover. Exempt turnover is 20% of aggregate turnover, so Rs 12,000 is reversed from Rs 60,000. Rs 12,000 is the reversal, not the credit allowed.

  1. ARs 12,000
  2. BRs 48,000Correct
  3. CRs 60,000
  4. DRs 8,000

Explanation

Exempt supplies ratio = 2,00,000/10,00,000 = 20%, so reversal is 20% of 60,000 = Rs 12,000. Eligible = 60,000 - 12,000 = Rs 48,000. Option A is the amount to be reversed, not the eligible credit.
