DEBIT NOTE AND CREDIT NOTE

Posted on March 26, 2020 By commerceiets No Comments on DEBIT NOTE AND CREDIT NOTE

The difference between Debit note and Credit note is as follows:

DEBIT NOTE IN GST

Debit note is a document issued by a supplier under Section 34(3)of CGST Act, 2017, when there is a need of increase in taxable value or increase in GST charged in invoice.

The tax liability of the supplier will increase, as and when the Debit Note is issued by the supplier.

It is to be noted that a debit note can be issued by a recipient also when the goods are returned or damaged in transit. But under GST, only supplier can issue the debit note.

CREDIT NOTE

Credit notes is a document that is issued by a registered person under section 34(1) of CGST Act 2017 when supplies are returned or found deficient, or decrease in taxable value or GST charged in invoice. The tax liability of the supplier will reduce, as and when the Credit Note is issued by the registered person.

Sometimes, the purchaser is unhappy with the quality of product shipped to him. In that case, he shall return the goods to the supplier, and in return, the supplier issues the purchaser, a credit note to the extent of the value of the goods being returned. There is no predefined format in which the credit note has to be issued; rather it is an intimation to the purchaser about such credit being offered.
