This discussion addresses a common query regarding the GST Annual Return (GSTR-9C) for FY 2017-18. The user noted a discrepancy between their availed Input Tax Credit (ITC) in GSTR-3B (£100,000) and what appears in GSTR-2A (£75,000). The advice given is that the difference of £25,000 does not need to be paid back, although there's a small risk of litigation. Importantly, GSTR-9C should reflect ITC as per your accounts, not necessarily GSTR-2A, and the difference doesn't need to be specifically mentioned as unpaid in the GSTR-9C.
