As taxpayers do not require to give HSN level detail of Input and Output for Financial Year 2017-18 and 2018-19, which is a not only a time-consuming exercise, but also don’t have any relevance.
Along with that they also don’t need to provide detail of Input Tax Credit (ITC) split details. E.g. Inputs, Input services, and Capital goods etc.
