The AAR, Gujarat in the matter of M/s. Aristo Bullion Pvt. Ltd. [Advance Ruling No. GUJ/GAAR/R/15/2021, dated January 27, 2021] has held that Bullion trader cannot use the Input Tax Credit (“ITC”) balance available in the electronic credit ledger legitimately earned on the inputs/raw-materials/inward supplies meant for outward supply of Bullions, towards the GST liability on ‘Castor Oil Seed’ procured from agriculturists and subsequently meant for onward supply, as there is no nexus/connection between the inputs and final product since the inputs are not used or intended to be used in the course or furtherance of the business of supply of ‘Castor Oil Seeds’.
