The applicant is not eligible to utilise the input credit available in their Electronic Credit Ledger (earned on the inputs/raw-materials/inward supplies meant for outward supply of Bullions) for payment of GST liability on supply of Castor oil seeds.

Input tax credit- Section 16 of CGST Act- The moot issue to be decided in the instant case is that whether the applicant can use the Input Tax credit available in the Electronic Credit Ledger towards the GST liability on ‘Castor Oil Seed’ which they intend to supply in domestic market or to export it. the inputs i.e. gold dores and silver dores on which the applicant intends to avail input credit are not covered under the excluded provisions of the said section. Further, on going through the provisions of the Section-16 as mentioned above, we find that sub-section(1) specifically mentions that the registered person shall, subject to such conditions and restrictions as may be prescribed and in the manner specified in section 49, be entitled to take credit of input tax charged on any supply of goods or services or both to him which are used or intended to be used in the course or furtherance of his business. This means that, for the applicant, to be eligible to take input tax credit on any supply of goods or services, the same has to be used or should be intended to be used in the course or furtherance of his business i.e. the nexus/connection between the inputs and the final products manufactured from these inputs is required to be proved. It can therefore, be seen that the even the basic conditions envisaged in the provisions of Section 16(1) have not been fulfilled in the instant case and we can therefore, undoubtedly conclude that the aforementioned inputs are not used or intended to be used in the course or furtherance of the business of supply of Castor oil seeds. Held that- we conclude that the applicant is not eligible to utilise the input credit available in their Electronic Credit Ledger (earned on the inputs/raw-materials/inward supplies meant for outward supply of Bullions) for payment of GST liability on supply of Castor oil seeds.
