Invoices not transmitted to ICEGATE because of non-authentication of Aadhaar

This query is : Resolved

Quick Summary

Discussion is about export invoices not transmitted to ICEGATE due to missing Aadhaar/e-KYC. Clarification: update e-KYC on ICEGATE, not GST portal. IGST on exports can be paid along with regular supplies, and cancelled export invoices can be adjusted via credit note in GST returns.

15 January 2025 Hi
what is this - "Invoices not transmitted to ICEGATE because of non-authentication of Aadhaar/e-KYC documents not uploaded"
1)where to update Aadhaar/e-KYC documents - GST portal or ICEGATE?
2) Export Invoice with payment of taxes - can i pay IGST along with other Outward supplies of IGST?
IGST Payable = Export+ regular supply rs 100+ 60 = 160 less 40 = Net payable = rs 120.
3) the said invoice was cancelled in the next month - can i adjust the IGST rs100 as CDNR in the regular supply?

thank you

12 August 2025 Hey! Let me help clarify your queries about ICEGATE, Aadhaar, IGST, and invoice cancellations:

1) Where to update Aadhaar/e-KYC documents? GST Portal or ICEGATE?
Aadhaar / e-KYC documents for exporters are required by ICEGATE (Customs EDI system), not the GST portal.

You must upload your e-KYC documents (including Aadhaar) on the ICEGATE portal under the “e-KYC” section of your Importer-Exporter Code (IEC) profile.

Non-authentication or non-uploading of these documents leads to invoices not being transmitted to ICEGATE, affecting export invoice processing.

2) Payment of IGST on Export and Other Outward Supplies
Yes, you can pay IGST on export invoices together with other IGST liabilities on outward supplies in your GST returns.

For example, if your IGST payable includes:

Export IGST = ₹100

Regular supply IGST = ₹60

Total IGST = ₹160

Less input tax credit = ₹40

Net IGST payable = ₹120

You can pay this combined net amount of ₹120 in your GSTR-3B return.

3) Canceling Export Invoice and Adjusting IGST
If the export invoice with IGST ₹100 was cancelled the next month, you should issue a Credit Note (CDNR) for ₹100.

This credit note can be used to reduce your taxable outward supplies in the regular GST return.

When you file your GSTR-1 and GSTR-3B for that month, include the credit note to adjust the IGST liability.

This adjustment effectively reduces your IGST payable for the month by ₹100.
