Airtel - GST Bills
I own a proprietorship firm and have GSTIN jointly in my personal name and in the name of my firm (Trade Name). Therefore, I am eligible to claim GST input tax credit on telephone bills, train tickets, air tickets etc.
Accordingly, I have asked Airtel to issue GST bills in my name so that I can claim ITC set-off and also provided my GSTIN certificate as proof. However, they are asking for copy of my PAN Card as additional proof for verification, which I am unwilling to give as this is unnecessary and there is no rule which asks for additional documentation.
While booking train tickets thru' IRCTC website or air tickets online, I simply have to mention my GSTIN and after I finish the journey, I get proper tax invoices from the airline. In case or railway tickets, the ticket copy serves as an invoice. Further, I can see the ITC given by these organisations in my GSTR 2A.
I could get GST bills from other service providers like Vodafone, Tata Docomo without providing PAN as additional proof. Therefore, I do not understand why Airtel needs PAN as additional proof.
GST paid to Airtel is from my pocket and I have every right to claim set-off. Airtel is creating obstacles to prevent it's customers from getting GST bills by asking for additional documents.
I would like to draw attention of the concerned authorities thru' this post on such hindrances and request them to clarify the rules. more

I WOULD SUGGEST YOU TO MOVE TO VODAFONE OR SOME OTHER SERVICE PROVIDER. MANY PEOPLE HAVE BITTER EXPERIENCE WITH AIRTEL more
Jul 07
Most companies do ask for PAN card for providing GST bills, so did Airtel in our case. In fact, PAN number is a part of the GSTIN itself. I guess best approach is to follow advice of Shir Ajit Jain regarding mentioning the purpose and date clearly on the copy of PAN card. more
Jul 04
Suppose you had mentioned the date and purpose of giving PAN card to Airtel on your PAN photo copy still what's the guarantee that Airtel or any of their person would not misuse it. When I had provided my GSTIN Certificate copy to Airtel and it has my PAN in GSTIN and any one can verify it from GST portal then why Airtel is asking for PAN? more
Jul 05
You may ask airtel relative provisions vide which PAN is requirement for issue of GST invoice.If still they don't provide one can approach the GST administration to intervene in the matter suitably. more
