Dear Members, I have issued 1 invoice in Sept 24 to XYZ Co Branch A GSTIN in Chennai thereafter issued a credit note to reverse the transaction in Dec 24 but while reporting in GSTR 1 I by mistake reported in XYZ Co but in Branch B GSTIN. Can i amend credit note that is change GST number to Branch A, will it rectify the error or amend value to zero & issue new credit note to rectify this error. Can the revised date and invoice number be same since invoice was issued correctly only reported erroneously.

- Amend the wrongly reported credit note (Branch B GSTIN) - Reduce its value to zero via amendment in GSTR-1 (Table 9C). - This nullifies the incorrect entry in Branch B’s records. - Issue a fresh credit note to the correct GSTIN (Branch A – Chennai) - Use the same original invoice reference. - You can retain the original credit note number and date (Dec 2024) if your system allows, or issue a new one with a new number/date — both are acceptable under GST as long as: - The document is not duplicated - The correct linkage to the original invoice is maintained

Sir, 1. I tried reducing value to zero in table 9C, but error pops up -add an item it does not accept zero. 2. If i issue a new credit note, the recipient will ask why and there is rule right, the revised credit note date should not be more than last date of original invoice so should i tell them to issue an invoice as such.

As amendment in GSTN is not allowed through amendment table thus you can rectify the same in two steps 1.) Issue a fresh credit Note with correct GSTN and Invoice Detail. 2.) In order to nullify the effect of Wrong credit note issue a Debit Note.
