GSt

The Hon’ble Supreme Court of India has provided a one-time opportunity to all the aggrieved taxpayers to file Form TRAN-1/TRAN-2 and claim their transitional input tax credit in GST system. In compliance of the Hon’ble court’s directive, the facility for filing TRAN-1/ TRAN-2 or revising the earlier filed TRAN-1/TRAN-2 on the GST common portal by aggrieved taxpayers have been made available by GSTN from 01.10.2022, and as per the court’s instruction shall be available to all aggrieved taxpayers till 30.11.2022.

All the aggrieved taxpayers who wish to file or revise TRAN-1/2 are hereby informed that the present process flow of TRAN filing is different from the filing process in the financial year 2017-18. As per
the present flow the transitional credit availed by the taxpayer in TRAN-1/2 forms shall be verified by the
jurisdictional tax officer before the credit entry is made in the respective ledgers.

The TRAN filing process has been improved vis-à-vis previous instance and the user interface of the portal has been made simpler for the taxpayers to file their TRAN-1/2 forms. However, before attempting to file the TRAN forms, the taxpayers should note some important points as mentioned in advisory which would help them in smooth filing of the forms.

TRAN-2 form shall be made available only if the taxpayer has filed TRAN-1 and have made declaration in
table 7 of TRAN-1. The taxpayer is requested to fill the complete details afresh in case they are revising the earlier filed TRAN-2 Form.
