How to rectify errors in GSTR 3B and GSTR 1

Save Share

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

A user mistakenly reported output tax instead of input tax in their July 2019 GSTR 3B and GSTR 1 filings. They also filed subsequent returns up to March 2020. The advice given is to rectify this error by amending the relevant invoices to zero in the September 2020 GSTR 1 return. Additionally, the user should reduce their taxable turnover in the September 2020 GSTR 3B and can claim any unavailed Input Tax Credit (ITC) on these purchases. This correction must be made in the September 2020 returns only.

05 September 2020 Sir, In GSTR 3B of July,2019, I had shown Rs. 114700/-(total of 3 nos.figures) as ouput instead of input. The same mistake was also committed while filing GSTR 1 of July,2019. Purchases were shown from parties and by mistake instead of input, output was shown in tally/GSTR . And I have also already filed GSTR 3B and GSTR 1 upto March,2020. Please let me know, how can I rectify the said mistake ?

06 September 2020 You can amend those invoices to zero in September 2020 GSTR1.Also reduce your taxable turnover in 3B in this month.You can also avail ITC on those invoices,if you have not availed.Remember,you have to do this correction in September 2020 returns only and not thereafter.
