The excel-based offline tool has been made available for preparing and uploading the statement in form GST ITC-04. The tool can be accessed at 'Download' section of GST portal, GSTN said in a statement.

As per GST (Goods and Services Tax) Rule 45, details of inputs or capital goods sent to job worker and received back from them need to be furnished on a quarterly basis in ITC-04.

"All the details can be added in offline mode and thereafter uploaded on GST portal to furnish the form for the quarter July-September 2017," GSTN CEO Prakash Kumar said.
