This query is : Resolved 

17 September 2025 Respected sir,
i have filed my gstr-1 and due to mistake invoice no of all party has been changed.please advice me what to do?do i correct invoice no through amend dent or any other option

17 September 2025 Time Limit for Amendment
Amendments in GSTR-1 can be made until November 30th of the following financial year or before filing the annual return, whichever is earlier.

After the annual return is filed or the deadline passes, no further changes can be made for that financial year.

17 September 2025 Amend incorrect invoice numbers through the "Amended B2B invoices" tab in the GSTR-1 of the following month or quarter, depending on the return frequency.

Select the relevant financial year and period, choose the invoice to amend, and update the invoice number and other details as required.

After all corrections, preview and submit the amended GSTR-1 so the changes reflect officially.

17 September 2025 Steps on GST Portal

Log in to the GST portal.

Go to Services > Returns > Returns Dashboard.

Select the year and period when the amendment is needed.

Click "Amendment of GSTR-1" and update invoice details.

Save, preview, and submit amendments, ensuring all corrections match books of accounts.

If invoice numbers for all parties have mistakes, amendments in the next GSTR-1 are required and must be done before the statutory deadline.

18 September 2025 The issue is that, after correcting invoice numbers in GSTR-1 through a B2B amendment, the counterparty now sees both the original wrong invoice and the amended correct one as separate invoice entries in GSTR-2B, leading to duplicate invoices. This is a known glitch reported by many taxpayers, especially after amendments, and the GSTN has acknowledged this problem and is working to fix it.

18 September 2025 Why Duplicate Invoices Occur
When a supplier amends an invoice in GSTR-1 (especially the invoice number), both the original and amended records may get reflected in the recipient’s GSTR-2B due to technical issues in the Invoice Matching System.

This can cause confusion and potentially inflate the eligible Input Tax Credit (ITC) for the recipient.

18 September 2025 What the Counterparty Should Do
The recipient (counterparty) should not claim ITC on both the original and amended invoices.

Only the correct invoice should be considered for ITC.

Manually check the GSTR-2B for duplicate invoices and exclude the ones that are incorrect or duplicated before claiming ITC in GSTR-3B.

Maintain clear communication between supplier and recipient to ensure only the legitimate invoice is used.

If the duplicate issue persists, the counterparty should raise a support ticket on the GSTN portal (https://selfservice.gstsystem.in) with full details and invoice copies, as GSTN is addressing such glitches actively.

18 September 2025 Advisory for Both Parties
Both the supplier and recipient should keep detailed documentation of the amendment made, including correspondence and evidence of correct invoice numbers.

Monitor updates from GSTN to ensure compliance as systemic fixes may be implemented soon.

Continue reconciliation with accounting records and GSTR-2B to avoid erroneous ITC claims.

18 September 2025 To resolve duplicate invoice issues seen in GSTR-2B, the counterparty should take several steps to ensure accurate ITC claims and compliance with GST regulations. The duplication commonly arises due to technical glitches in the GST system when suppliers amend invoices, or because entries are carried over incorrectly during reconciliation periods.

Immediate Steps for Counterparty
Manually check GSTR-2B: Before claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) in GSTR-3B, review the GSTR-2B statement carefully and identify duplicate entries.

Do not claim ITC for duplicates: Claim ITC only once for each genuine invoice. Do not claim ITC on the duplicate (repeated) invoice entries to prevent compliance issues and penalties.

Reconcile with accounting records and GSTR-2A: Cross-verify purchase records and GSTR-2A to ensure that only the correct invoices have been considered for ITC. Rate-wise and more detailed information is often available in GSTR-2A

18 September 2025 Raise a ticket on GST self-service portal: If the duplicates are due to a technical glitch, report it via the GST self-service portal (https://selfservice.gstsystem.in). Share your ticket number directly with GSTN for faster resolution.

Avoid rejecting in IMS: Do not reject the duplicate entries in the Invoice Management System (IMS); instead, adjust ITC claims in GSTR-3B using manual reconciliation and supporting records.

Follow GSTN advisories: GSTN has issued advisories and system updates to address these issues. Stay updated via official notifications and act according to new guidance.
