Frequently Asked Questions

We have put together some commonly asked questions

WhiteBooks captures ITC availed across all categories of inward supplies — domestic suppliers, reverse charge from registered and unregistered persons, imports of goods and services, and SEZ supplies. Each category is tracked separately and classified into Inputs, Capital Goods, and Input Services, giving you a complete annual ITC picture across IGST, CGST, SGST/UTGST, and CESS.

Yes. WhiteBooks maintains distinct sections for reverse charge ITC — one for supplies received from unregistered persons and another for registered persons. Both are categorised into Inputs, Capital Goods, and Input Services, ensuring each source of reverse charge credit is reported accurately and independently in the annual return.

WhiteBooks tracks these separately. ITC on imported goods — including SEZ supplies — is captured under IGST and CESS since CGST and SGST are not levied on imports, and is split into Inputs and Capital Goods. ITC on imported services is tracked independently, excluding SEZ services which are reported under the goods import section, ensuring there is no overlap between the two.

WhiteBooks aggregates all ITC distributed through the Input Service Distributor (ISD) across the financial year from monthly GSTR-3B filings. It presents the credit separately for IGST, CGST, SGST/UTGST, and CESS, giving a transparent view of how much inter-state and domestic credit has been allocated and is available for utilization.

WhiteBooks covers reversals under Rules 37, 37A, 38, 39, 42, and 43, as well as blocked credits under Section 17(5) and any other applicable cases. This includes reversals for non-payment to suppliers, exempt supply proportionation, ISD adjustments, capital goods usage, and industry-specific scenarios, ensuring every type of ITC reduction is captured and explained.

Yes. WhiteBooks captures transitional ITC availed through TRAN-I and TRAN-II filings, including any revisions made to TRAN-I. It also tracks reversals of these transitional credits separately, giving taxpayers a clear and consolidated view of all carry-forward credits brought into the GST framework and any adjustments made during the financial year.

WhiteBooks calculates Net ITC as the difference between total ITC availed and total ITC reversed during the financial year. It is shown separately for IGST, CGST, SGST/UTGST, and CESS, and represents the actual credit available for offsetting tax liabilities — giving taxpayers a precise and audit-ready figure for each tax head.

WhiteBooks reconciles IGST paid on imported goods against the credit actually availed and flags any portion that was deferred to the next financial year or left unclaimed. The difference between IGST paid and the sum of availed plus deferred credit is highlighted as unavailed ITC, helping you identify credits at risk of lapsing and take corrective action before the financial year closes.
