Facts of the Case

The applicant was a manufacturer and it entered into lease agreement for leasing of warehouses for storage of goods. It received invoice for renting of services for FY 2018-19 on April 1, 2020. It filed an application for advance ruling to determine whether it would be allowed to claim ITC of renting services received in FY 2018-19 on basis of invoice dated April 1, 2020.

AAR Held

The Authority for Advance Ruling observed that the tax invoice was not been issued within 30 days from date of supply of rental services which is essential requirement in terms of Rule 46 of CGST Rules, 2017. The invoice issued in FY 2020-21 pertained to FY 2018-19 in which rental services were supplied.
