If you've submitted GST bills for GTA services without generating an e-invoice, and the previous month is closed, there are steps to rectify this. If your GSTR-1 hasn't been filed, you can update the invoice with the IRN before filing. Software like Tally, Busy, or Marg often have functions to push old invoice data to the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP). Failing to generate a mandatory e-invoice can invalidate the invoice and lead to penalties, so it's crucial to generate the IRN promptly and inform your client.

E-invoicing is mandatory for registered persons whose turnover exceeds the prescribed threshold (currently ₹5 crore annually), including for GTA services.
E-invoices must be generated before issuing the invoice to the recipient.
If your GSTR-1 is not filed yet, just update the invoice with IRN before filing — no amendment needed.
If you’re using Tally/Busy/Marg software, they typically have an e-invoice update function — use it to push old invoice data to IRP.
Issuing a tax invoice without e-invoice (when required) may result in:
Invoice being treated as invalid, affecting ITC for the receiver.
Penalties under Section 122 of CGST Act.
By generating the IRN now and informing your client, you mitigate this risk.
