No Input tax credit if GST was paid by supplier on advance paid to him

No Input tax credit if GST was paid by supplier on advance paid to him :

Normally, ITC is taken on basis of ‘Electronic Credit Ledger’. However, if advance payment was made before receipt of goods and services, input tax credit cannot be taken as goods and services are not received.

At the time of payment of GST on advance, the supplier of goods and services cannot issue tax invoice. He has to issue only ‘receipt voucher’.
