Question : Where will I get the Modvat / ITC ?
Answer : You will get this in the month of July 2017. This is a part of the Transition Provisions. This is a part of the CGST Act itself. Google search for the Section 140(5) CGST Act. It is plainly written there. See the extract of this, pasted above
Question : What will be its treatment in Finsys ?
Finsys will pass this as a Purchase Voucher. Finsys will automatically calculate the GST on this as per current law. However since the paper invoice from the vendor will carry the Excise @12.5% ( in this example) so, you will manually edit this voucher as under.
Purchase Raw Material Debit 100000
GST ( Transition Excise ) Debit 12500
GST ( Transition VAT/CST ) Debit xxxx

Regarding the Excise law is fully clear that ITC will be received. However for the CST, it is expected to be received. But the department is yet to clarify on the same as on 3-7-2017 at 5.22pm.
