Yes. Since the 2022 amendment to Sec 49(10), a registered person can transfer IGST and CGST amounts in the cash ledger to a distinct person with the same PAN, using PMT-09. SGST balance cannot be moved across states.

Provisions

Sec 49(10), CGST Act 2017; Rule 87(14), CGST Rules 2017

Analysis

If Delhi has ₹3,00,000 IGST in cash and Haryana owes tax, move it through PMT-09 to the Haryana GSTIN. Transfer is not allowed while the transferring GSTIN has unpaid liabilities in its return. This saves a refund claim and a fresh deposit.

Close

  1. Check the transferring GSTIN has no unpaid dues
  2. Open PMT-09 and choose transfer to another GSTIN of the same PAN
  3. Select the receiving GSTIN, heads and amounts
  4. File and check both ledgers
