GST invoice shown by vendor under wrong GSTN

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

If your business has changed its name and GSTN, but vendors are still issuing invoices under the old GSTN, you need to take action. The correct procedure is for your vendors to issue credit notes for the incorrect invoices and then re-issue new invoices with your entity's accurate GSTN. This process may involve the vendor paying GST again, but the previously paid amount should be credited back to their ledger. Promptly follow up with your vendors to ensure these corrections are made so you can claim your rightful Input Tax Credit (ITC).

26 April 2025 The correct procedure involves the vendor issuing credit notes for the incorrect invoices and then generating new invoices with the accurate GSTN of your entity. You should follow up with your vendors to ensure this is done to claim your rightful ITC.
