We have wrongly availed ITC of Rs. 4112 as IGST in m/o of July-2018 instead of Rs. 2056 as CGST & Rs. 2056 as SGST. Today we found this correction.
Sir, We are manufacturer of Footwear & we have sufficient balance of GST in Credit Ledger in all the months of 2018-19.
Sir, my query is that can we adjust this correction in the m/o Feb-2019 by taking less IGST Rs. 4112 and add CGST & SGST by Rs. 2056 each or we have to deposit IGST through cash ledger with interest.

You need to pay CGST & SGST thru cash ledger and claim refund of wrongly paid IGST
When Intra-State Sale is Wrongly Treated as Inter-State Sale This scenario occurs when a taxable person pays IGST on an intra-state supply transaction which he has mistakenly treated as an inter-state supply. Ideally, for an intra-state supply, the tax collected should be CGST/SGST instead of IGST.
To rectify the situation, the person concerned will have to pay CGST/SGST and get the refund of the amount paid as IGST.
Note: No interest will need to be paid when the taxpayer pays the correct tax later on. Penalty will not apply in these scenarios.

Thanks for your prompt reply Mam, but actually my query is little differ. My Output GST is OK and ITC Adjustment is also OK. We are footwear manufacturer & always have sufficient GST in Credit Ledger. So there is no question of SHORTFALL & Deposit GST.
Although we have AVAILED GST in wrong head.
So please guide me on the basis of above clarification.
