    In excise regime, job worker has taken credit of input material sent directly to him on consignee basis. Job worker has declared stock held and value of credit available with him on behalf of principal(FORM GST TRAN-1). Under what provision or rule job worker can pass the credit back to Principal under GST regime ?
