Once released under Rule 86A(2), the ledger should show the amount as available. Check before your next return.

Provisions

Rule 86A(2), CGST Rules 2017

Analysis

Release can be full or partial. Check the ledger head by head, IGST, CGST and SGST, because a release may cover only some heads. Example: ₹3 lakh released out of ₹5 lakh blocked; the ledger should show ₹3 lakh available and ₹2 lakh still blocked. Keep the release order with your records for any later audit.

Close

  5. File the order with your records.
