Rule 42: Manner of determination of input tax credit in respect of Inputs or Input Services and
reversal thereof
•As per Rule 42, reversal is required for that portion of common credit which is attributable to exempt
supplies or for non-business use. (common credit means that part of ITC which cannot be identified
specifically to taxable supplies including zero rated or exempt supplies or non-business rather
commonly used for taxable supplies, exempt supplies or/and for non-business use.)
•A formula has been prescribed to determine the eligible ITC to be taken removing the ITC attributable
to exempt supplies or used for non-business use.
•For using that formula, we need to first work out 3 things i.e. common credit (C2), common credit
attributable to exempt supplies (D1), common credit attributable to non-business use (D2).
•Remainder ITC to be taken removing a part of common credit attributable to exempt supplies
etc. denoted by “C3”is- C3= C2- (D1+D2)

Working of common credit attributable to supplies used in non –
business use (D2):
•D2= 5% of common credit. As simple as that!!
Now, when we are able to calculate C2, D1 and D2, we can use the above formula i.e. C2- (D1+D2) to
calculate the C3 – Final ITC to be taken removing the ITC attributable to exempt/non business use supplies.
Point to be noted:
1. This C3 has to be calculated separately for CGST, SGST, IGST and UTGST.

T1 : 50,000
T2 : 1,00,000
T3 : 30,000
T4 : 7,00,000
C1 = T – (T1 + T2 + T3)
= 10,00,000 (50,000+1,00,000+30,000) = 8,20,000
C2 = C1 – T4 = 8,20,000 – 7,00,000 = 1,20,000
F : 2,00,00,000
E : 15,00,000
D1 = (E ÷ F) × C2 = 15,00,000 / 2,00,00,000 * 1,20,000
= 9,000
D2 = 5% of C2 = 5% of 1,20,000 = 6,000
Value to be Reversed = D1 + D2 = 9,000 + 6,000
= 15,000

New sub section inserted after sub-section (2):
“(2A). The amount not apportioned under sub-section (1) and sub-section (2) may, for the time being,
on the recommendations of the Council, be apportioned at the rate of fifty per cent. to the Central
Government and fifty per cent. to the State Governments or the Union territories, as the case may be,
on ad hoc basis and shall be adjusted against the amount apportioned under the said sub-sections.”.
Commentary – The objective to amend Section 17 of the Act is to make a provision for settlement of
balance in the integrated tax account equally between the Central Government and the State
Governments.
