05 November 2024 Sales bill were issued during Sept.2024 and GSTR 3B and GSTR 1 also filed. But e invoice were not prepared. Received a notice from Local GST office asking clarification for non issue of e invoice. Actually, during FY 2018-19 only, my transaction was more than 5.00 crore, which I forgot and did not issue e invoce. May I issue e- invoice now ?

28 November 2024 The general process for issuing e-invoices requires that the invoice be created and validated through the e-invoice portal before the goods/services are supplied, and before filing the GSTR-1. However, if you have missed generating e-invoices for past transactions, you cannot simply issue e-invoices for the past invoices directly.
You cannot directly issue e-invoices for past transactions, but you can revise or cancel the past invoices and generate new ones with the e-invoice system.
