The burdon of proof is lies on the purchaser who is claiming input tax credit on that purchases. The reason should be find out by the purchaser. is there any technical error or malfide mistake? If such is the mistake the authorities can disallow the input tax credit as the purchase bill is not authenticated one.

Hi, if the quanity, quality ,date and the other details are the same, you can make an application for the input credit, if the the tax authority ask the clarification you can produce the letter from the seller as the seller has to remit the tax for the same deal or they have to remit the tax twice for the mistake.
